How to create disk image with Linux?
 
Is there a way to boot from linux CD and create an image of hard disk with Windows installation?

On the end create a bootable recovery CD....????

You can create an image using dd:
Code:
dd if=/dev/hdXX of=/mnt/otherpartition/hdXX.img bs=4M
I know of no way to create a bootable recovery CD, though again, linux could restore this image.

hi
 
What is command to restore it and is there a way (command) to save it on network server automatically?

Well, you'd just need to mount the network server's exported drive and put "of" there. To restore it, just reverse if and of.
