I have a copy of a partiton, /home/, on another drive. I figure there is a simple way of syncing the copy to reflect any changes in the partition. The problem I am having is that there seem to be many tools available, but any examples I see tend to go way beyond anything I need and I am paraniod enough that I dont realy want to try something without knowing that it is indeed safe, ei copying over and/or deleting something that I realy need. |

It would be bad if You don't have space enough to do a backup first. For syncing the both dirs, i recommend "rsync". A first example could be f.e. "rsync -rlzti --stats --progress /home/ hdx:/home/".
But be very careful, test it before and don't forget the backup ! |
