Ghost 7.5 supports ext3. Although being a corporate edition, it'd be pricy. Check this: http://enterprisesecurity.symantec.c...fm?productID=3

Coops: thanks but like you said it's pricy (we might end up getting it though)

does anyone know of any other tools for doing the same job as Ghost? preferably small enough to fit a floppy

...if you only ever want to restore it to a partition of the same size. However, if you want to restore to different size partitions and different file systems, stick with tar.
