Compressed imaging of partitions is a fundamental element of my backup system,
where DOS, OS/2 & Windows as well as Linux live. On a number of PCs the base
bootloader is IBM BM. When I checked into LVM a couple of decades or so ago, I
found it incompatible with my backup system, while I like the one I had and have
which logs, creating a plain text, universally accessible catalog of what I
have.
