Please Help: Need to Backup home folder to external drive via terminal

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: April 9, 2011
Hello all. I have apparently broken my installation, though I am uncertain how. I can boot into the terminal, but the desktop shell refuses to load under any circumstances. The best thing I can think of is to simply reinstall. But before I reinstall, I need to backup my home folder to the external drive. I found a program called rsync that seems easy enough, but I cannot figure out the location of my external usb drive. Can anyone tell me how to do this? Please? FYI, I'm using Linux Mint 9
