the original question was about installing *BackupPC* together with the pool
on a separate disk. My answer to that one is: it's the wrong step toward some
unknown goal. Forget about that and follow Arnold's advice. Mount the disk to
/var/lib/backuppc and then 'apt-get install backuppc'. Or describe what you
are trying to achieve.

Holger
