You're right, FAT would be easier. No immediate need for NTFS. If I have the
time, I'll try dd of an entire NTFS partition and let you know how it
worked. Will be using the same geometry in every case.
And thanks for the link: <http://www.microwerks.net/~hugo/>

NTFS may still be a problem though. Linux doesn't get along with it very
well. If you have the choice, I'd recommend installing your test systems
with FAT anyway. It makes disaster-recovery
easier in general. If you're stuck using NTFS, then maybe a dd of the whole
partition will work? Although it'll require that you restore to the same
geometry.

accomplish.
I'm setting up a software test environment for multiple OSs, and needed to
restore various OS images as needed.

My quick and dirty testing says it can't, but where would I go to get the
official scoop?
