Hmmm, Just had a look at the website. They say it supports all the "popular" OS's. For some reason Linux doesn't appear on the list though.
I think you would need specific support for each FS (Reiser in this case) particularly when migrating to a larger HD, as you'd want to adjust partition sizes olong the way. Ghost handles this for ext2, but I don't think it sees any of the journalled FS's. Partimage may be the only solution, although as said previously, my cursory tryout was unsuccessful. As I have Ghost, I was probably not motivated enough to make it work. Brian On Tue, 2002-03-19 at 19:47, FemmeFatale wrote: > If You need it & don't mind buying software, get Drive Copy.
