backup2l for Debian
-------------------


* Configuration *

After installation of this package you find the default configuration 
file in /etc/backup2l.conf. Please configure in this file following 
options to custom values:

 - SRCLIST:          all directories for backup
 - BACKUP_DEV:       for the backup media, only if it must be mounted
 - BACKUP_DIR:       the backup directory, that must be exist!
 - UNCONFIGURED:     remove this line, if all is configured!

Optional these options can be set in /etc/backup2l.conf:

 - CREATE_DRIVER     Selected driver for backup (one of the builtin or 
                     custom driver)
 - USER_DRIVER_LIST  List of custom drivers for using in CREATE_DRIVER


* Cron job *

The "zz-" prefix of the cron job file (zz-backup2l) causes the backup job
to be the last one executed, so that other jobs are not delayed.


* Unofficial code *

You can find unofficial code inside /usr/share/doc/backup2l/examples:

 - driver_atime_preserve_code.txt       to resolve problems with mutt
 - driver_my-tar-lz_code.txt            to add support for lmza
