Best way to backup a cygwin installation ?


-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

what is the best way to backup a cygwin installation ? I have a working
installation here on w2k with a size of appr. 700 MB. I use ntsec and I
wonder which is the best way:

- - copy the file sin windows ?
- - make a tar.gz archive under cygwin ?

I want a possibility to turn back to this version in case the upgrade to
1.5.x fails.  
 
Gruss Olaf FÃllinger
