[QUOTE="sevenhelmet, post: 133669, member: 10935"] In the August 2005 issue of MacAddict Magazine, on page 60, they have a walk-through of a backup script. I adapted this program to backup my "Users" folder as most of my data is stored there. The program runs fine, and is backing up my data as I type this. However, I was wondering how to adapt the script to backup my entire internal hard drive to the external in case the worst happens... What UNIX path should I enter in the script to backup my entire hard drive? Are there any other issues I will have to work around? (such as program permissions, etc.) Is anybody else here familiar with the script I am referring to? [/QUOTE]
