I would like to do nitely cron backup everything for full restore to a
second hard disk:
/mnt/fat32/backupdir

I gather I need to use "tar" to do this, but not exactly sure of the
precise command and switches. Don't want to mess up on this. Here's my fstab:

Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s2a     99183    29641    61608    32%    /
/dev/ad0s2f   8835083   673328  7454949     8%    /usr
/dev/ad0s2e     19815     2317    15913    13%    /var
procfs              4        4        0   100%    /proc
/dev/ad1s1   13264736  3086024 10178712    23%    /mnt/fat32

Guidance on exact tar line command would be appreciated.... thanks in
advance.
