I also got the following recommendation: use CLONEZILLA, a CD-based live distro exactly for this purpose. I prefer the clonezilla + gparted livecd, which has more options - a mix of partitionmagic + ghost. http://gpartedclonz.tuxfamily.org/index.php http://clonezilla.sourceforge.net/ The clonezilla website says it works well with DRBL http://drbl.sourceforge.net/ for parallel centralized cloning. A quick look at their website, and it looks pretty good. I'd be interested to hear if any of you guys have had any experience with it? Thanks, -tom
