-- I should have been more explicit;
The target systems are small 486's with nothing but a NIC Ethernet card,
floppy, and small Hard-disk.
I got lots of replies about dd/backup/tar .. etc, but the point here is I
want to do it over the network. Floppys are too small, and there is no
other transportable media on the target.
I was thinking of something like a boot/recovery disk to tftp the whole
thing, or a boot disk with NFS, or with (rsh source "tar cvf / -" | tar xvf
-), or...
I can play with it, but thought someone might already have a proven
solution.
