Is this reliable backup software? http://redobackup.org/

Not used it myself - I tend to just back up '/home' to an external drive. Not sure if you could use Clonezilla which you could create a clone of your hard drive - I'd wait for other contributors. I have used the paid for solution of Acronis Home True Image but not tried reversing an archived UE system!

Hi msrmf

Iv'e been using Redo since I installed Zorin over 2 years ago. I keep seperate backups of all my partitions and a complete HD backup. I have restored various partitions and the hard drive a few times and installed my system to a new HD using Redo. I find it easy to use and reliable and I highly recommend it.

Cheers Auldyin

Thanks, glad to hear especially the easy to use part.
