There are a number of ways to do this. You could use dd to copy from one drive directory to another, or use a number of utilities. Norton Ghost works with rh9, but doesn't handled the later FC3. G4U and G4L use dd to upload and restore images to ftp server, or do direct copies. Another program is udpcast, which uses multicast to copy to a number of machines at once. I've worked on the last two versions of g4l, and am working on a new version with the 13.4 kernel to support some newer hardware. The latest version on the sites is 0.16, but the new version is on my test machine, and some users that had hardware that was beyond the 0.16 version. ftp://amd64gcc.dyndns.org/g4l-0.17xx.iso The bzImage8 is the latest kernel. But check out the sites, and see if it meets your needs. > If I had a LVM how would it be? > Is there some application or way to replicate the disk, create a mirror, ghost, whatever?? > > Thanks in advance! > > > +----------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.
