Hello Bertrand, Images are simply directories so you can very easily backup them.
There is a tool dedicated to the image manipulation called cpimage. Please use the following method : cpimage image-name image-name-backup-2004.05.12 This will allow you to have two images, namely image-name and image-name-backup-2004.05.12 You can then "play" with your image called "image-name" and push the changed to your nodes while keeping a "working and safe" backup image called image-name-backup-2004.05.12 For more information : man cpimage Ben * [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [04-05-12 03:34]: > Hi, > > I have made a lot of changes on my system image since its first build.
