   Hi Tommi,   
      
    MP>> backup of the OS/2 system on a specified interval without having to   
    MP>> reboot the OS/2 system into a linux partition.   
      
    HG> Is this really possible?   
      
   TK> Yes. Please read previous posts by Torsten and me.   
      
   I have done it and even saved them.   
      
    HG> I know that you can't backup a running system   
      
   TK> Well, DFSee can backup a running system. I've made disk images from   
   TK> my running os/2 systen for a long time... I even converted one of   
   TK> these backups to a vmware virtual machine once. ;)   
      
   DFSee has long been a dream to me but I have not acquired it.   
   My favourite file manager has always been the derivatives of XTRee that   
   was included with my first PC, an Epson 286 AX.   
      
   I have it for OS/2 and Windows too.   
   Regarding the Windows version: Don't install it on the partition that   
   Windows starts from. It takes an age to start up due to the amount of   
   files that Windows installs.   
      
   Now I have it installed on the partition where I store my own programs.   
      
      
   Hyv„„ iltaa,

   .. The best way out of a difficulty is through it.
