What;s the Best Way To Backup Ubuntu 8.04

Asked by taurus

What's the best way to backup ubuntu 8.04 to DVD? And to restore it in case something goes wrong? I want a "fire and forget" approach to backup where in case something goes wrong, the process of restoring my computer is simple, not complicated. And, I want a FULL backup and restoration, not a partial one, with system settings included.

Well the easiest approach for a 'complete' backup is using dd, but that copies everything.

You might also want to take a look at PING - http://ping.windowsdream.com/

Can you help with this problem?
