While this isn't strictly on-topic about rdiff-backup, it is quasi-on-topic.
I've gotten RDiff-Backup and volume shadow service working at the same time on XP/2003/Vista - so I can backup anything regardless of it's in-use status: registry, system files, etc. The question now is: -Has anyone attempted to simply create a full copy (backup) of the whole OS? (Again, XP/2003/Vista etc...) -If so, what files are critical etc? -Do you have a quick and dirty how-to? -And more importantly how would one go about restoring such a backup for a "bare-metal" restore - or something close. (I think setting the MBR and etc, wouldn't be handled, but I'd like to have the whole OS covered.) I've trolled google for something like this, but had no luck. Can anyone point me in the right direction? -Greg _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
