2nd presentation - Mondo Archive by Jim McQuillan
One area that gets ignored by many people is a System Level Backup. That is
a backup of the operating system, that can be used to rebuild the system, in the case
of a hard drive failure.
Mondo Archive is a wonderful tool for backing up entire hard drives, or parts of a drive, and
it also includes the ability to make a bootable CDRom or boot/root floppy set that can be used
to quickly rebuild a system after the hard drive has been replaced.
Jim will go through a quick overview of using Mondo, just to give you an idea of its features.
