Has anyone had experience with this product? It claims to work with ext2 filesystems. I am trying to clone my RH 6.1 over to a larger drive. It gets 98% into the clone and then gives an exception error. Has anyone cloned an entire drive (linux only) successfully with this thing?
TIA for sharing your experience.

I've cloned a dual boot system with no problems - win2k and Slack 7.1.

I don't know if it matters, but my system is not dual boot(linux only) and lilo is on the mbr. Any Ideas??
TIA

I use Ghost 5.1c.
My laptop dual boots W98 and Debian.
I run ghost from Windows and make an image of the linux partition to an external scsi drive each week. Due to the corruption of the Linux file system when hibernation kicks in, I have had to restore the Linux partition serveral times. It works just fine. I don't even need to rerun Lilo.
I would like to know it there is a comparable product for Linux. I'd love to image my W98 partition the same way.
