Partition Image is a Linux/UNIX utility similar to Symantec's Ghost. This
uility saves partitions in the EXT2, Reiserfs, NTFS, HPFS, FAT16, and FAT32
file system formats to an image file. The image file can be compressed with
gzip or bzip2 in order to save disk space, and it can be split in order to fit
onto a series of floppy disks. This program can be useful for backup purposes.
A boot/root disk is also provided, allowing you to run Partition Image without
Linux installed on the hard disk.
