Meta Configuration of Package PartImage
<package name="PartImage" project="home:lluke123"> <title>Network daemon for serving partition images created with partimage</title> <description>Partition Image is a Linux utility which saves partitions in the ext2fs, reiserfs, hpfs, jpf, xfs, fat16, and fat32 formats an image file. Only used blocks are copied to save the space and to increase the speed. The image file can be compressed, in gzip, or bzip2 formats, and can be splitted into small files to be copied on floppies (1,44 MB, ZIP, ...) or CDRs. Partition Image will only copy data from the used portions of the partition. For speed and efficiency, free blocks are not written to the image file. This is unlike the 'dd' command, which also copies empty blocks. Then, the partition can be restored if there is a problem on the partition (file system error,virus, error in data, ...), from the image file. It can also be used to install many identical PCs with the same hardware. You just have to install an only PC, and you can copy the linux partitions to all others. Be careful, this is an alpha version. Then, there can be bugs, and changes in the data format between differents versions. Don't backup important data with it, and use the same version to save and to restore the same image file. Please, report all bugs to the author. See /usr/share/doc/packages/partimage/html for help.
