System backup

Backups use Tar.

Bootable tapes not possible, but dvd-r's would be with a rh kickstart
system on the dvd and a script to do the tar restore as one hit.

Regards

Steven

        I am sure this has been asked many times and I searched the web
and got a lot of hits. But I though I would ask again here to see what
is recommended and why. In other words tell me what you like and which
ones to stay away from. I need something that is basically simple that
writes to a direct attached tape drive. It would be nice if the backup
was bootable to be able to do a complete bare metal restore.

Thanks:
