That will work. I just wanted a way to get my system back up and running if my hard drive died.

To make master CD, and install a lot of server not from scratch, we use "mondo". It makes a bootable CDs which can automatically install an clone server (~same hardware). It's possble to launch a script at the end of the restoration, to adapte the config (hostname, IP...) With the same idea, there's "mkcdrec". And Targeted at configuration management, there's the promising system imager/installer. Concerning tape, I tink that I read that if you have a bootable tape drive (HP on button recovery) it's handled by the bios (like CD) like a floppy at boot. So having a bootable image on it should do it (what name/format ?). And every program aimed at bootable CD backup/disaster recovery should do it. ********************Confidentiality Notice******************** This message is intended for the sole use of the individual and entity to whom it is addressed, and may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
