Backing Up your Laptop or PC - Easy!

I was using a program called G4L to image my laptop or pc but I have found a much easier way.  It works with Linux or Windows, no installation is needed, allows you to resize partitions, backup systems, access files, and recover lost data.  It is a live CD called "Redo".  Check it out here http://redobackup.org/.  It rocks!

Taken from the site:

Redo Backup and Recovery is so simple that anyone can use it. It is the easiest, most complete disaster recovery solution available. It allows bare-metal restore. Bare metal restore means that even if your hard drive melts or gets completely erased by a virus, you can have a completely-functional system back up and running in as little as 10 minutes.


All your documents and settings will be restored to the exact same state they were in when the last snapshot was taken. Redo Backup and Recovery is a live CD, so it does not matter if you use Windows or Linux. You can use the same tool to backup and restore every machine. And because it is open source released under the GPL, it is completely free for personal and commercial use.
