backing up windows with nfs
I want to back up My WinXP installation onto another box with a free HD.
I got both boxes running Linux and nfs is properly set up, so I can mount the windows partition on the first box and start copying files over to the clean hd on the second box.
Fine and dandy.
However, I want to copy over an image or full mimic of the windows partition. are tools available to do this?
Secondly I want to be able to boot off the windows backup directly. Rather than technical, that's probably a licence issue. WinXP might not let me do this in a different computer or on a different harddisk.
Has anybody done something similar? Any experiences to share?
