I have no future plans for flatback at this time.
Someone is welcome to pick up where I left off. Contact me if you are interested.

The first release of flatback is out.
Flatback is a simple filesystem archiver. With it you can back up an entire root filesystem, including the /dev device inodes. I have tried afio, dar, and star but they did not fill my needs. So I wrote flatback.
Flatback is alpha software and cannot yet restore an archive that it creates.
