Hi

Well, just like the subject says I am for a program or a backup approach
simillar to the one I am currently using. I boot with a Dos-Bootdisk and
use Ghost to backup my Linux-Partitions to a FAT-Partition and then
distribute the images around different computers on the network. I would
like to be able to something like this with FreeBSD. I have had a look at
Ghost 4 Unix but this is mainly oriented towards deploying images via the
network while I just want to store the files locally. The advantage of Ghost
and Ghost4Unix is that is is very easy to restore the system even if it so
messed up that it wont boot. How can I do this ?


Bye
Stefan
