Thanks Andreas. Those are the sorts of commands I had in my mind but
was not capable of writing myself. It would seem that all of that is
probably supported while an installation CD is in a remote machine. (I
hope!) If gzip isn't there then I can try for bzip or not even zip it
since the XBox has s

Hi,
you can share the folder on the remote machine with nfs, then you can
mount the nfs on your local computer and use dd or anything you like.

Hi,
Can anyone here think of a way to back up remote partitions before
installing Gentoo? Is there some way to run a command like dd but pipe
the output it back to my local machine? What other info might I need
to restore the remote machine later? I figure I'll save the partition
