Hey sure thing.  You might want to read through most of
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO/
although it is a bit outdated now, not a whole lot changes.

Zowie reference.  And detailed, omagod.

As noted before & elsewhere, be sure to test your recovery process or
else don't bother making backups :)

Only experience so far on the pc side has been with ghost images--and yes, an integrity check is a nice heartache preventive. I smile when I remember all the images I burned to the cheapest ritek dvd's I could find--only to discover there's a reason why they're cheap.

All this was SO much simpler on the miggy side, when all you had to do was just use a directory tool like DOpus and lharc or lzh everything on your boot drive to another HD and then save it somewhere safe--none of this registry rigmarole.

Woops, I'm waxing winderz again... Don't shoot me I'm only the piano player.

Again, thanx Ben for your thoughtful attention,

Have fun & report back, I'm
always curious to know what's worthwhile out there on the bleeding
edge... starting to feel like an old fart here ;)
