[orca-list] an easy to use backup program

[michael weaver <weavermicha googlemail com>]

does anyone know of an easy to use application for baccking up a 
ubuntu system?
i ask because it links to the previous email i sent about 
updating orca.
i find a lot of things in linux from the command line can be very 
daunting apart from things like listing directories so i need 
something simple for being able to backup and restore maybe an 
entire system if i were to screw up on something like maybe if i 
have to update at-spi in order to update orca.
updating orca itself is quite daunting unless i am folowing the 
instructions on the internet using my braillenote.
i did try a graphical backup a while ago, can't remember what it 
was called, maybe backup and restore which was a ubuntu and 
debian backup program only the program was not accessible with 
orca at the time which would have been ideal for someone who 
isn't always up on long complex linux command line things.
hope someone can help with this one unless of course i could 
maybe create an entire iso of my system using DeVeDe and maybe 
use that to restore a system if something gets screwed up which 
usually seems to happen with me which results in me doing a fresh 
install of linux.
