Can anybody recommend a good disk imaging pacakge so I can back my laptop up? Something like Norton Ghost that I can boot from a floppy and make a backup over the LAN would be great - I have Ghost 2002, but it doesn't handle Reiser file systems. I've tried partimage but can't get a bootable floppy that will work with my NIC (realtek 8139) Commercial software is fine, so long as it's not *too* expensive ;-) sjb
One thing you might try is G4U (ghost for unix) http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/ Have Fun, Jim.

Cheers, that looks to be the simplest (and cheapest) solution so long as I can free up enough space on my FTp server ;-) sjb

Now, *that's* the one I was after. Thanks very much! And, even better ..

These customers are eligible to purchase Acronis True Image 6.0 Promotional Edition for $9.99, that's over 80 percent off of the retail price!" Brilliant *8-) sjb
