Question: what do you think would be the easiest way to

thoughts appreciated.

I've had good luck with partimage from the system rescue cd. Seemed
simpler than clonezilla, at least it was to me some time back.
Scriptable too. Per clonzilla's home page, Clonezilla uses Partclone
(default) or Partimage to make backups.

In my script, it boils down to:

partimage --batch --compress=0 --nodesc --finish=3 --volume=0 save $part
${part##*/}-$today.partimg

Do you know if the above drops empty space from the image?

Come on people, do some basic research before bothering others.

google partimage.  first hit is project home page.  read the 4th paragraph in 
bold text.
