[Dump-users] Backuping up a complete Linux system for system recovery

[<se...@sh...>]

Hello there,

	I've spent the last couple of hours trying to work out a 'free'
(ie. using GPL / open source software) solution to our backup needs.  We
need to be able to backup a complete Linux system with views to being able
to recover following a full system crash ie. the hard drive goes up in
smoke.

	Now, I have some experience writing custom boot floppies and CDs,
but will I be able to do what I am after using a 'dump' of the system to
be recovered?  Has anyone got any advice?

	Thanks in advance,
