I am preparing to backup my root drive in preparation

I have in /dev/hda as:
/boot = /dev/hda1
/ = /dev/hda2
I have backed up /boot with: tar zcvpf /boot.tgz /boot
I'm not sure why you care about backing up /boot - certainly it would
be unwise to restore this when you have installed F7!
But have get to figure out how to get /dev/hda2 backed up without
picking up the other drives mounted on /
rsync is your friend. man rsync. rsync -avr SOURCEDIR DESTDIR - this
is assuming you have your backup disk mounted.
