Backup script for 10.4
Here's a script for multi-volume backups on MacOS 10.4. Usage is
The default files are specified in the script and should be modified as needed, the default medium is DVD, and the default backup is from the epoch. The -cd option changes the medium to CD, and the -m option allows you to do an incremental backup from the date specified.
To use the backup script unattended, write a short script that will move /tmp/backup-/backup.tar to an archival location with a unique filename, such as the current time. Invoke that script in the tar command with "--new-volume-script=". You may also need to run the tar command as "tar ... < `yes`". (I haven't bothered with unattended operation because the tar archiving is very quick compared to the s-l-o-w burning of DVDs.)
