    could I make an image of my ubuntu box with ghost, or ghost won't image linux partitions?

    thanks

    Hi Jorge,

    Yes Ghost will image Linux partitions. We tested GSS 2.5 on Ubuntu up to 7.10 and I'm pretty confident it will work on 8.04 as well.

    To clone the root partition you'll need to boot into a preOS where the root partition is not mounted. The Ghost tools can run on Linux, DOS, or WinPE.

    Hope that helps.


    David.
