I am looking for a good hard disk backup program for the II GS.
Actually, since I don't have any right now, even a bad one will help.
	[Good == choice of full or incremental dump & restore, with
	automatic date-stamp determination of new files for the
	incremental case.]

Ideally it will run under the system 3.1 desktop but this is probably
not necessary.  (But it MUST use 3 1/2 880K diskettes -- after all it
is a 20 Mbyte drive!)

The Macintosh world has dozens of such programs.  I haven't been able
to find single one for the GS, and I am getting very nervous.

Equipment: GS.  1 mbyte memory.  Apple 20 Mbyte hard disk.
