Fw: [SLE] Lazy question: how to make partition image?
Message-ID: <002b01c057fc$6cdbe7a0$0b0aa8c0@alpha>
From: "Andrew Smith"
to remove my two Windows partitions entirely, as I never visit Windows anymore. OTOH, on the off chance that I want to restore Windows without reconfiguring, downloading all system updates etc., I would like to make a copy of the partition images, such that I could simply copy them back to the partitions again. Now, each partition is 1G, and neither contains more than a CD's worth of data, though of course i don't know how it is distributed. Can I make an image and burn it to CD? Can I make a compressed image and burn it to CD? Is there an alternative way of going about it that doesn't involve making an image? I'm borrowing a friend's burner, so this explains in part my lack of knowledge; I don't do a lot of this stuff.
TIA.
Best,
Corvin
