The following reply was made to PR docs/41244; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Tom Rhodes <darklogik@pittgoth.com> To: Nik Clayton <nik@crf-consulting.co.uk> Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: docs/41244: "Backup" info needs reworking Date: Thu, 01 Aug 2002 16:49:23 -0700 > > >>Description: >> >> > >The Handbook chapter on Storage has four sections pertaining to backups: > > 12.9 Tape Backup Media > 12.10 Backup Programs > 12.11 Floppy disks > 12.12 Backups to Floppies > >"Floppy disks" should be earlier in the chapter, and probably called >something like "Creating and Using Floppy Disks" (in keeping with >the optical media section). > >"Tape Backup Media" should probably be called "Creating and Using Tapes". > >"Backups to Floppies" should die a horrible death, but that's probably >slightly premature.

Shame on myself for not getting to this before your PR was submitted, but I'll be evaluating this soon.
