Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Have posted before. I am trying to get a multiboot system to work. Linux, XP, Vista. I am now trying to put Linux at the beginning of the drive and the other 2 OS's at the end.
What I don't understand is the restore process using these 2 tools. They both seem to act the same. So, questions:
-Do I need to create the specific partitoins I am restoring to actually be able to select the destination? Seems like I do.
-I have no idea how the restore process is working. Seems like g4L or even clonezilla restores only the boot partition. I created a root filesystem and a linux-swap partition. I started g4l, picked the source, filename, and told it to restore to the correct partition (or so I thought). Went real quick which leads me to believe it is only restoring boot.
How do I selct partitions to restore and where they will go? How is this darn process working, I have no clue. I am used to Norton Ghost and I AM A WINDOWS ADMIN. No linux experience.
