   Well, you could always backup your whole partition with the standard   
   program "disks". But that's of course a bit more cumbersome than having   
   TS doing a daily backup in the background. But of course that will also   
   overwrite your home folder, pictures, downloads etc.   
      
   So maybe not a good idea after all.   
      
   TS has failed me once too, so I'm interested in a better solution as well.
