     6 cdbackup and cdrestore are a pair of utilities designed to facilitiate
     7 streaming backup to and from CD-R(W)/DVD-R(W) disks.  Specificially, they were
     8 designed to work with dump/restore, but tar/cpio/afio/whatever you want should
     9 work, so long as it writes to stdout for backups and reads from stdin for
    10 restores.

    12 NOTE: this program REQUIRES that a recent version of cdrecord (or
    13 cdrecord-ProDVD for DVD support) be present in the PATH.
