[olug] [OT] Drive copy utilities?

[Michael Peterson]

The following is a Sourceforge project that could possibly work.

FOG - Free, Open-Source Ghost: Version 0.04
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=749974

FOG is Free, Open-source ghost, a computer imaging/rescue suite. 
A free alt. to Ghost, used to image Windows XP, Vista PCs using PXE,
PartImage, and a Web Gui to tie it together. 
Soon to add memory test, disk test, disk wipe and av scan. 

We are proud to release Version 0.04 of FOG. This version adds some advanced
boot options like disk wiping

Subject: [olug] [OT] Drive copy utilities?

 Howdy folks,

I am looking for a standalone disk copy utility for imaging one hard drive
to
another. For this particular application, I am using PATA drives. The source

drive will be ~250 GB while the dest drive will be ~400 GB.

I want something OS independent, so something that is a standalone bootable
CD
is highly preferred. Shareware and freeware is great but I am also looking
at
commercial software, something akin to Ghost. As an aside, Ghost might be
too
confusing for some end-users to easily follow instructions, but maybe not.

While a roll-it-yourself Linux solution comes to mind for many folks, I'm
not
looking at this as a primary option, unless I've missed some great Linux
project out there to do just this.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

~Kevin Hinze
