Yes I have used the disk to image option before so I could save the
image on an external drive as a file. It worked well. You can save
space by using compression and I believe it gives you an option on how
much you want to compress it. I believe it can write the image to
ntfs, ext3, or ext4.

Clonezilla has worked well for me in the past.

I have used Clonzilla from the downloadable ISO at their web site
quite frequently with good results.

It looks like I really should make the clone backup with the
Clonezilla bootable disk, not from a partition with Fedora Code 16
installed on it.

Question: I have always done disk to disk.  Have you used the
"device to image" option?

Sound like it just creates a big file on your target drive.
Does it reduce size by dropping unused space?

What type of partition does it want to write the image too?
Ext4? NTFS?

Many thanks,

Thank you!
