Bjorn - One way to do this is to install an additional, identical hard drive as a slave in the system. Assuming you are using IDE drives, then use
dd if=hda of=hdb bs=1024 This will make a complete copy of drive a on drive b. Just make sure you know which is which -- use fdisk -l to be sure. -Glenn. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:Bjorn.Naessens@;roularta.be] Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 6:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: complete system backup hi there, I'm having some difficulties making a complete backup from my redhat system. At the moment i Backup all critical files by copying them over NFS to my windows PC where i write them on disc. But i would like to make a "norton ghost"-like backup. So when something goes wrong ( hacker, disk failure ) , I can just format the disk and restore my backup on it to have a working system again. Is this possible? kind regards Bjorn -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
