Info relating to backup is here, search for "back"

LDP is an excellent source for most questions. I use tar but I remember
reading 
that cpio is more error tolerant. I'm sure that there are more
references to backups
at LDP but you will need to look around. O'Reilly publishing has a good
book for general questions "Running Linux" and "Linux in a Nutshell" is
a good reference text.
However, it isn't necessary to buy text because LDP has most everything
anyway.
