RE: Backingup/restoring by partion
Hi Kent
I have a few possibilities - and all have a compromise - dual booting is one
- though I'd rather not simply because it's only a 20gb hdrive and I'd
rather more than 10GB per os to play with (yes you're right this could be a
little indulgent)
Other possibilities include using a LiveCD like knopiX or DSL etc and I
haven't even looked at those distributions that run 'under windows'. Other
than that I have legit licenses for vmware and win4lin, but they don't quite
cut the mustard.
Even if I went with dual booting or other options, I'm still curious to know
if there is a tool out there that will take an image of a drive, not just a
file system. Something like (or so I understand) ghost used to do.

And dual-booting is not an acceptable solution?
