Backup with Mondo Rescue Disaster Recovery Tool is not a problem but restore will NEVER work right?. "UUID" keys for HD, fstab, linux partition etc. Are these randomly generated on linux system? so if you restore a backup with mondo it will never work because UUID keys will be random re-genreated during boot.
I don't remember exactly how Mondo worked, but: UUIDs are created when formatting a partition (mkfs.*) If the clone is done as an image of the old system, it will work. If the clone is a copy of the contents, ie, the files of the old system, it will not work. This is something that should be documented at the mondo site. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
