This project will do a fine job.

If you have norton ghost, it will make a good image as well but your system can't be running during the image process.

Hi Maaz,

mondo is good but try partimage ( http://www.partimage.org/ ).

One good solution to save all of your partitions is to boot from a live distro that has partimage inside. I use Kurumin ( http://www.guiadohardware.net/kurumin/ ), a very good brasilian distro by Carlos Morimoto. It's based on Knoppix. Unfortunatly for you all the site instructions are is Brasilian Portuguese but I think that you can do the job.

Best regards,
