I have a Mandrake 8.1 system and want to backup or copy the entire hard drive to another hard drive. Just like the program ghost on DOS and Windoze. Is there a awy I can do this.

Thanks in advance,

If I am not mistaken ghost makes an image of the hard drive. Boot from the ghost floppy and create the image maybe.

The other way is to tar the whole hard drive and untar it to the other (not as simple as it seems)
