I have discovered 'partimage' on something called 'systemrescue cd'. It can be downloaded here.
This nifty utility allowed me to image a backup of a fresh-install of XP \ Office and allows me to re-image my machine in no time (actually 1.5 hours, less with a smaller HDD). That being said I would like to know if this can be done with KM.
Code:
mythtv@mythtvhost:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 4.7G 1.8G 2.7G 41% /
/dev/hda3 185G 120G 65G 65% /myth
tmpfs 188M 4.0K 188M 1% /dev/shm
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 4.7G 1.8G 2.7G 41% /
/dev/hda3 185G 120G 65G 65% /myth
tmpfs 188M 4.0K 188M 1% /dev/shm
The snippet above reveals that there are 2 partitions (hda1 & hda3). I am wondering if I backed up hda1, would I have enough to restore a system if I were to booger it up through tinkering \ experiementation. I suspect that any tinkering in /myth (hda3 mounting point) would be at risk.
I am trying to determine if it is possible to leverage the partimage technology to protect me from myself
