==== Description: ====
Gnetic  is  a tool for create and restore backups. Also lets you clone
computers over the network.  You  can  make  computer  copies  using a direct
 connection  between  two machines (Point-2-Point), or using the "link mode",
that create a chain of nodes that sends information like a bus-topology  net.
 With this method, theoretically you can clone up to 64 computers (or as many
you specify) at same time that 1 or 2.

You also can with gnetic to make copies "on the fly",  sendig  information
directly  to  the  net  without create a system image before. Of course
alwais there are the traditional option of crete a system image and send it
over the net when you want.

gnetic supports these filesystems:
ext2, ext3, jfs, xfs, reiserfs, linux-swap, hfs, fat16, fat32, ntfs

You can download from: http://sgd.howto-linux.de/download/.gnetic/

The webpage is http://gnetic.forjamari.linex.org but it doesn't work at the
moment, the web is only in spanish just as the using_gnetic document. I don't
speak english and I have many difficulties to translate to english.

The versions 0.2.1 to 0.3.2 of gnetic have headers that contains Microsoft
Windows boot code, I get it from the ms-sys project
http://ms-sys.sourceforge.net/ ; The creator of ms-sys is not 100% secure
that these headers are legal. Gnetic version 0.3.3 no longer contains these
headers and windows is cloned and boot correctly after clone, including the
windows with ntfs file system.




==== Other Software Required: ====
gettext
libparted
for all versions

e2fsprogs
libuuid1
only for 0.3.3

suggested packages:
jfsutils, xfsprogs, reiserfsprogs, hfsutils, dosfstools, ntfsprogs, ntfs-3g
