Hi there Aubuti

Thanks for that. This is exactly the way I wanted to do it. However, I
had a doupt. I am "usually" a windows user, so makes me doupt is, wether
there are inaccessable files, like files currently being used, hidden
files or system files? This would obviously be the most important to
back up. Can all of them be copied correctly over the network? And as
importantly: Copied back if needed?

I'd still prefer some kind of offline boot solution... some partition
cloning/backup tool like norton ghost, clonezilla or whatever similar.
