DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: partimage?

No,

All you need to do is download and install gcc1.dsl from the myDSL repository (requires a decent amount of available RAM or swapfile).

Then you can compile partimage. Then you need to corral the resulting files into a myDSL extension.

Or you can try apt-get the partimage program and use the deb2dsl script to build an extension from the binaries.

Search the forums for keyword

Hi,

Here is my solution:

I tryed do download with apt-get but I only find a partimage.doc.

I was going to partimage web and download the binary files, this tar.gz has 2 files:
partimage and partimaged (daemon).

I put the partimage file in my DSL pendrive.

Within a terminal window in DSL now I can backup the harddisks of my desktop computer

Another posibility is within emelfm select the partimage.tar.gz and clic on Mydsl buttom, now you have the two files installed and you can execute partimage from a terminal window.

Have luck!!

Trick is how would I get those changes onto a bootable CD.

Not every computer these days can boot from USB.
