Re: [gentoo-user] Ghosting a Ext3 partition

If you want to back the system up while it is running (in particular

backup image that is valid (i.e will boot) - something like xfsdump, 
*dumpe2fs* etc or smart tar/dump based tools like Amanda.
Hmm - dunno what I was thinking there -  'dumpe2fs' is completely wrong, 
should have written 'dump', sorry!
