Those of you following along with my example will be writing bootable-ISO image backups to disk, but what kind of images? CD-Rs can store 650MB–700MB of data (depending on the type you bought), and DVDs can store roughly 4GB. Compression can affect the performance of your backups dramatically. The higher the compression, the more impact on speed and performance. You can elect to skip compression or select minimum, average or maximum compression. To minimize the space in which backups are stored, the mondoarchive program can compress files on the fly. The next screen (Figure 2) is worth thinking about, because it seriously affects the performance of your backup. If you chose a tape-drive backup, Mondo Rescue would try to guess the location of your tape drive-normally successfully. You'll be asked for the pathname to the disk location you want to use for your backup (Mondo Rescue will provide a suggestion). Tab to the Hard disk option, and press Enter. If you choose that option, you are asked to insert blank disks at various points in the process. Ready to back up?
