	Options (Un)Set run-time option flags
	-------------------------------------

	This menu item allows the user to set and unset options which will 
	affect the way the backup is performed. Each option will be 
	described below.

	Done 

	This concludes the (un)setting of options and returns the user to 
	the Main Menu.

	Multi 

	This option (un)sets the Multi-volume archive flag. When backing 
	up to or restoring from a removable media such as floppies/tapes 
	AND the  backup is likely to span more than one unit of the 
	removable media, this option will allow the user to 
	interactively change the media when required and then continue 
	with the backup/restore process.

	NOTE that the Multi-volume flag imposes some restrictions 
	on the backup/restore/compare process. These are as follows :

		1. They can ONLY be performed in foreground mode to
		   allow the user to interact with the process when media
		   changes are requested.
		2. Multi-volume backups cannot have any compression
		   applied to them. This can considerably increase the 
		   size of the backup archive.

	Because of the latter point, if the Multi-volume flag is set, the
	compression option is automatically unset.

	The following message is displayed to the user prior to L.B.U
	performing a multi-volume backup or restore :

	 	************************************************
		* IMPORTANT INFORMATION. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY *
		************************************************
		
		You have selected the 'MULTI-VOLUME' option for
		bkup/rstr/cmpr (found under Options menu item from the
		Main Menu). Because this will require interactive user
		intervention when media changes are required, it can ONLY
		be run in FOREGROUND mode rather than in
		BACKGROUND mode where media changes are not
		expected.

		When the bkup/rstr/cmpr process completes, you will be
		returned to the normal menu-ised L.B.U interface.

		Please also note the following :

		The 'MULTI-VOLUME' option is normally selected (under
		Linux) to back up system files and directories to the 
		floppy disk drive.
	
		There are two ways to backup to a floppy drive using L.B.U.

		If the user selected /dev/fdn (where n = the floppy drive
		number e.g /dev/fd0) then L.B.U will write the tar archive
		DIRECTLY to the disk.

		NOTE: THIS IS NOT A FILESYSTEM AND CANNOT BE MOUNTED WITH
		THE UNIX MOUNT 	COMMAND. IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED THAT YOU TRY
		THIS.

		The backup can later be restored using L.B.U and specifying
		the SAME device specification (/dev/fdn) prior to using the
		Restore Main Menu option.

		This is the CORRECT way to do a MULTI-VOLUME backup to a 
		floppy.

		The other way to backup to a floppy is to mount the floppy
		as a filesystem.

		( e.g mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt )

		and then backup to that filesystem... ie to /mnt.

		This is fine if the backup will not occupy more than the
		free space available on the floppy disk, in which case you
		need not have specified MULTI-VOLUME anyway !!

	Absolute

	The Absolute flag ensures that the backup preserves absolute
	pathnames for files. If it is unset, then the leading / is removed
	from the path so that any restore operation will restore files
	relative to the directory from which the restore operation was
	initiated.

	Mail

	If set a copy of the backup log file is mailed to the user.

	Block 

	Allows a variety of blocksizes to be specified. The default is
	quite acceptable in the majority of cases, but for backups to tape
	other block sizes may be used.

	NOTE: If the default is changed, a note should be made of it
	because the same blocksize MUST be used for the restore or
	compare operations.

	Perms

	If this option is set the files are backed up with their 
	permission masks intact and any restore operation will restore 
	them with those permissions.

	Owner

	If this option is set the files are backed up with their original
	ownership intact and any restore operation will restore them with
	those ownerships.

	Totals

	If this option is set, a total archive byte-count will be recorded
	at  the end of the backup logfile.

	Verbose 

	With this option set, each file backed up will be recorded in the
	backup logfile. It is a sensible idea to leave this option set.

	Compress

	This menu item will bring up a sub-menu allowing the user to 
	select the form of compression to be used. There are three 
	possible options for compression which are as follows :

		o  Gzipped. 	   This is the default and highest form
	    	   Extension=.tgz  of compression. It is the most efficient 
				   and should normally be used.

		o Compress.	   This uses the compress command and is
	 	  Extension=.tar.Z included in case (for some reason) gzip
				   is not available.

		3. None		    If the Multi-volume flag is set then no
	 	   Extension=.tar   compression is permitted.

	NOTES: If the compression sub-menu is entered, the Multi-volume
	       option is automatically unset.

	       If you enter the Compress menu, a change in compression
	       mode is assumed and you will be required to re-enter the
	       Device selection from the Main Menu so that an appropriate
	       file extension can be included.

	Exclude

	This option activates or deactivates use of the exclusion file by
	L.B.U.
