[net.micro.mac] Hard Disk Backup Programs?

hnij@bnl44.UUCP (John Labovitz) (07/13/85)

Argh!!!  For the second time, I've had to re-format my Lisa 10mb
hard drive because some program went and screwed up the directory.
I don't mind re-copying all the files and so on, but the problem
is that I don't backup my files regularly.  Why?  Well, because it's
a real pain to go thru the ENTIRE directory (of over 5mbs, and hundreds
of files) and try to figure out what files to put on what floppy to
to get close to 400k!

So... Does anyone know of ANYTHING resembling a backup/restore program for
the Lisa (or any other hard disk unit -- SOMEONE else must have had
this problem).

I've heard that XL/SERVE has some kind of backup utility -- does anyone
know about it?

There is a bug in macworks XL so, as you know, be careful to backup freqently.
XL/Serve did not implement backup in the June release.  Apple plans to have the
macworks bug fixed real soon now.
