Ok, I have not found this, and it must be 'out there' somewhere. I would like to be able to do a 'bear metal restore' for both Linux and Windows.
I have done it using a commercial product on Windows (basics were: build a 'new' installation with just the minimal network basics, with the c:\windows somewhere else (like c:\winx ) if c:\windows is your 'system' directory. then restore all the data, including the c:\windows directory, restore the 'system state', reboot the machine. It is now exactly the same as it was before, after you erase c:\winx I never did it on Linux. I basically have just built a 'new' machine and restored data, and re-installed all programs. Doing bear metal here would be nice too. Does someone know where I can ReadTheFineManual for some 'how-to's' with BackupPC?
