Dear All

If someone knows that which software can be used to make a ghost image for
the SUSE Linux ..

That will make me more easier to install the OS ..

I had tried to use the Symantec Ghost to make a disk to disk image,but when
I restored the image ,the system could not be started :(

If you have some experience about this ?

thanks


Look at partimage. For 10.3 you can find packages in this repo:
<http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/wberrier/openSUSE_10.3/>

Otherwise, it is included in Knoppix and INSERT linux, so you can boot
outside your system.

It can compress the image (zip or bz2), save the MBR, skip the empty space, etc.
