Dear All,
I was wondering how I could make a clone or image of my computer hard disk
that contains debian OS. I want to do this in order to make an exact copy to
another clean pc with no os at all. What complete free software can I use
for this ? Is there a manual some where on the net about this ?
I highly recommend Clonezilla-live. it makes cloning to/from any sort
of storage very simple. You can clone to an attached usb drive, to a
network drive via nfs, samba, or ssh. (http://www.clonezilla.org/)
Here's a quick, and compeletely non-exhaustive list of cloning options:

You'll waste far too much space using dd, if the drive is of any
significant size.
