Disc Burning Quick Assist
You easily burn toast, but you can't figure out how to burn a disc. Whether you want to have a tangible copy of your GarageBand masterpiece, back up your files, or share your epic movie-making mastery with couch potatoes around the world (or at least your non-critical friends and family), creating a CD or DVD of your work is a common rite of passage in every Mac user's life.But if burning a disc conjures up images of flaming rounds of plastic, this handy guide will show you how to create your own CDs and DVDs and help you troubleshoot any issues that may occur. All you need is a disc drive that can record the type of discs you want to burn.Apple Combo Drives can burn information on CD-R or CD-RW (rewritable) discs. Apple SuperDrives can burn data to CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, and DVD-RW discs—some of the latest SuperDrives may also burn to DVD+R, DVD+RW, and DVD+R DL discs (see your product manual for specifics). Be sure that you only purchase recordable discs that work with your disc drive. For information about your particular disc drive, consult your Apple or third-party product manual.

NAME

       backup-manager - An easy to use backup tool for your Linux box.

SYNOPSIS

	 backup-manager [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Backup Manager is an easy-to-use tool for generating archives.

       It is designed with simplicity in mind for those who don't want an obfuscated tool for making tarballs.

       There  are  different  methods  for  building  archives: tarballs, incremental tarballs, mysql dumps, svn dump. You can also write your own
       method with a generic method that will execute a command and will archive its output.

       Every times you run Backup Manager, you can upload archives thanks to a couple of upload methods: through FTP, SSH or even with RSYNC.

       It's also possible to export your archives to removable media like CDR or DVD.

CONFIGURATION FILES

       Backup Manager's behavior is defined in configuration files. You can use different configuration files at the same time.  The default  con-
       figuration file is `/etc/backup-manager.conf'.

       An  example  should  have  been	provided  with	the  program,  most  of  the time it's installed in `/usr/share/backup-manager/backup-man-
       ager.conf.tpl'.

       If you want exhaustive details about how to  write  your  own  configuration  files,  please  refer  to	the  Backup  Manager  User  Guide:
       http://www.backup-manager.org/documentation/user-guide/
