I do know, from experience, that using dd to write an image of the Windows partition works excellently well. So, if you could build yourself a floppy, or a CD ROM, that booted linux with speakup and net drivers, I don't see why you couldn't restore a Windows machine over the net, or from some locally attached media. My experience using dd this way is mostly on my portable Thinkpad, where I keep a Windows installation in /dev/hda3. Whenever I install something on that partition that mucks up the Windows, I don't muss and I don't fuss. I just go back to linux and dd the former, pre-troublesome Windows installation back to /dev/hda3. Works like a charm, and it works fast.

* Re: smbtar ` smbtar Gregory Nowak @ ` Janina Sajka ` smbtar Thomas Ward 1 sibling, 0 replies; 14+ messages in thread From: Janina Sajka @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: speakup I should think so. As long as you can boot the local machine, whether by floppy, CDR, or whatever, and connect to the net, this should work just fine, imho. I think you might want to keep data on the local partition, just in case you have to dive down to repartition. Don't know how dd treats restoring to a different sized partition, wouldn't expect it would be happy with a smaller partition, and don't have any sense about a larger one because I've never tried that.

On a DVDR, probably, but unlikely on a CDR even with tar and bzip2. dd is byte for byte, so how ever large the partition, that's how large the file will be.
