Michael, thanks!
You are right, you need install reports too: as far as I am concerned,
I am backing up right now the whole disk of that laptop I mentioned
some time ago. Done that, I'll finally be able to try this new ISO: (I
couldn't afford to lose those data, and it drove me mad for some weeks
trying to make the PCMCIA cards work so I could either back it up on
an external jaz drive, or to my desktop via ethernet...).
Michael, you said it shouldn't touch other partitions, right? It has
/ on /dev/hda3 type ext3
and WinNT (which I need to not touch) on /dev/hda1 type vfat
In other words, I need to leave partitions as they are, can
erase/reformat / but not /dos/ (even if I *am* backing up that too,
so, apart from having wife yelling at me until I restore it, nothing
unrecoverable will happen :-) )
One last question on the new ISO: it has stock Xfree, right? not the
kdrive you worked on?
Ciao,
