Linux "This tutorial shows how you can back up and restore hard drives and partitions with Ghost4Linux. Ghost4Linux is a Linux Live-CD that you insert into your computer; it contains hard disk and partition imaging and cloning tools similar to Norton Ghost. The created images are compressed and transferred to an FTP server instead of cloning locally."

I agree that g4u is a great product, and I made a $20 donation to the author when I started using it. My College had a Ghost site license, but it then failed with disks with LVM partition, and Symantec was of no help. Found g4u, and it worked fine. Only problem I had was when trying to image a full classroom of machines at the same time, it would usually have about 25% of the machines fail. Later tired g4l, and it never had the problem with the ftp. Since then, I generally use udpcast, which is even better for doing many machines.
