Hi,
n00b alert
Does anyone have a 101 level boot strap guide for someone
wanting to get into creating better-than-dd disk images?
Is there a reason to do a real IMAGE backup, rather than a
file backup? I have used Linux to backup a lot of old PC
stuff, including backing up a Win95 system and making it
available to a Win95 virtual machine under VirtualBox. This
enabled me to run a bunch of old CAD programs and
recover/access old schematics and board layouts.
Linux can directly identify and read almost all of the old
FATxx file systems.
