Although 'df' and 'du', shows that to total space used for it is less then the total capacity of the DVD disk (~ 3.5GB), growisofs/mkisofs are treating hardlinks as files (I know it is the idea, but...) so the amount of backup volume jumps to +20GB. How can I copy the rsnapshot backup dir to a DVD as it is on HD? Thank you, - Marcelo
