If your win partition is /dev/hda3

dd if=/dev/hda3 of=WinXP.img

thats all their is to it.. it'll read every byte if /dev/hda3 and write it out to WinXP.img


-- netmask

Mick Mearns (off_by_1@xxxxxxxxx) composed today:

Hello list;
 I would like to know how to zip/bzip2/tar.gz etc my Windows XP
partition.

I rarely use XP, when I last did - I realized what a PITA it was to
get current.
(fdisk/format/w98se/upgrade to XP/load drivers/load SP1/patch/load
progs)

So I would like to make an iso (while I still have space), and burn it
to DVD.

I know that Linux file permissions are not possible on vfat, but how do
I save the vfat file attributes? hid/sys/archive

Is there a script out there to do this?

Thanks
  Mick M.
