Title: Partiton Image Manual
Author: Franois Dupoux <fdupoux@partimage.org>
Section: Apps/Admin
Abstract: Linux/UNIX utility to save partitions in a compressed image file
Partition Image is a Linux/UNIX partition imaging utility: it saves partitions
in the Ext2FS (the linux standard), ReiserFS (a new journaled and powerful
file system), NTFS (Windows NT File System) or FAT16/32 (DOS & Windows file
systems) file system formats to an image file. Only used blocks are copied.
The image file can be compressed in the GZIP/BZIP2 formats to save disk space,
and split into multiple files to be copied onto removable media (ZIP for
example), burned on a CD-R, etc.
This makes it possible to save a full Linux/Windows system with a single
operation. In case of a problem (virus, crash, error, etc.), you just have
to restore, and after several minutes, your entire system is restored
(boot, files, etc.), and fully working.
This is very useful when installing the same software on many machines: just
install one of them, create an image, and just restore the image on all other
machines. Then, after the first one, each installation is automatic made,
and requires only a few minutes.
