Partition Image is a Norton Ghost / Drive Image clone for Linux. This uility
saves partitions in the ext2, reiserfs, ntfs, hpfs, fat16, fat32, jfs, xfs,
hfs filesystems format to an image file. The image file can be compressed in
the GZIP/BZIP2 formats to save disk space, and be splitted to be copied on
multiple removable floppies On problems, the user just have to restore the
partition from the image file, and all the original data are copied. A
boot/root and a bootable CD-Rom disk are now provided to run partition image
without Linux installed on the hard disk. The new version provides the
newtork support. Tested under intel i386+ and PowerPC/iMac
The XFS support has just been added in version 0.6.0rc3. It was a little
tested with small partitions (300 MB), and large ones (15 GB), but we need
more test to be sure this support is stable.
Interested users can make tests and send us bug reports. Tests on large and
fragmented partitions are very useful, because the support is more complex.
You can have details about how to make advanced tests in the handbook.
The partimage team.
