Default Re: Clone my HDD

DD and netcat are two very powerful tools for linux. Be careful in their usage, mainly DD. With the wrong command or syntax you could wipe out your HDD.

Another free (linux) alternative is Partimage.

I use a bootable cd (SystemRescueCd) that has DD, netcat, partimage, and a few other useful tools for all my backup needs. Rarely will I use ghost anymore. DD is much more thorough.
