Terribly sorry for Off Topic. 
But I sent the same request to "questions" and got no answer, 
and  I need the answer ASAP :-))
I'll try to be as short as possible. 

The question is: Will the image of the disk made with
"dd if=/dev/da0 of=/backups/scsi.img"
reproduce the correct disk structure . 
I.e will the next command
"dd if=/backups/scsi.img of=/dev/da0"
recover the disk like it was before, assuming the 
hard drive is OK (no bad blocks etc).

It's out of interest however. The disk contains partitions
with OS/2 boot manager, NT 3.11 etc. 

Theoreticaly it should work. 
Have anybody experience with such a desposition?

Thanks in advance
