Well, I created a bootable cd with driveimage on it. I thought this is also
mentioned in the official manual of driveimage. The technique is the same as
on windows. You boot with the cdrom and make an image from all partitions
(just select all 3 partitions) and the compressed image will be burned onto
cdr. That's all, quite simple, isn't it? :)
