	This is just a hard drive with a little circuit that allows you to
access the hard drive from a USB port. I have had this for 4 years now.
I backup my computer to the 30GB HD in a plastic case connected by a USB
port.


	Here is the bash file that works:

karl at hardy:~$ cd /root
karl at hardy:/root$ ls
bin  PDF
karl at hardy:/root$ cd bin
karl at hardy:/root/bin$ ls
rsync-media  rsync-media~  rsync-mnt
karl at hardy:/root/bin$ cat rsync-media
# This file is designed to backup my Ubuntu to the USB Hard Drive using
rsync
# Karl Larsen, 8 june 08
# rsync -vaHz --exclude '/proc' --exclude '/sys' --exclude '/media' /.
# /media/disk
# This is what works on my computer
# rsync -vaH --exclude '/proc' --exclude 'sys' --exclude 'home'
- --exclude '/mnt' --exclude '/media' /. /mnt
# This goes to the USB hard drive
rsync -vaH --exclude '/proc' --exclude 'sys'  --exclude '/mnt' --exclude
'/media' /. /media/disk
