Does anyone know of a program that does the same thing (clones an entire hard drive, partitions, boot sector and all), but runs under Linux? Or is there a simple way to do this from the comand line?
Last I looked at Ghost, it said it supported Linux, but no details. I have been using cluclo (search on freshmeat). It creates a boot floppy that will format a HD and tar in from a CD, NSF export or whatever you ask for. Works well.
Ghost will work, but I don't like it. Check out Systemimager. ( http://www.systemimager.org/ ) It's really cool, you can have a machine upload itself to an image server and simply boot computers with a boot disk (or net boot as I do) and they will install automatically, without user intervention. When it's done, the trget system(s) will stop responding to pings and start beeping. You can install on many multiple computers simultaneously. We use it here, I really like it. - -- James Oakley Engineering - SolutionInc Ltd. joakley@solutioninc.com http://www.solutioninc.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE61aaw+FOexA3koIgRAmKqAJ4o4tnyRhPCbkf3HEL7GSPusfDMKQCfSyTS 5FFdCg3BwgV091ebfDi+JCE= =GDv4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
