FC3 and create image


I have got 3 OSs (Win2000, FC3, Solaris 10), Can I use Ghost to create image for individual OS ?

Or I have to use Ghost to create image for the whole HD (All OS together) ?

Any other idea ?

You can use partimage to create compressed images of your paritions. Best way to do this is from a live cd like knoppix.

Yes, will work for linux and windows (ntfs support is still experimental if I remember corerctly)

Partimage will have to be included in the live cd, yes. The idea behind running it from a live cd is that that way it's safer to back-up the partition you're working from.

It will have to be included already - by the developers (unless you know how to do that yourself) so it can run from the cd instead of from a partition

Each partition is backed up seperately
