New question #154502 on sbackup:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+question/154502

Hello all, I just installed simple backup on an ubuntu 10.04 system and tried to run a full backup.    In the profile setup I included the root directory:  /    

The pop-up window didn't make any sense, it reads:

You can force the creation of a full snapshot by enabling the option below.  

Do want to create a backup now?  The Checkbox says:   MAKE FULL BACKUP

So which is it?  Am I making a full backup or a snapshot?  This totally contradicts itself.

I tried it with the checkbox checked and unchecked, the resulting backup folder was only 29.5 KB. I did not enable compression, so am I doing something wrong?  Thanks for any help, Joe.
