Hello Folks,

I have 26 new IBM laptops ready for use in our new Linux Mobile Lab. I
have one of them all configured and ready to go. The hard drive was
repartitioned so it now dual boots XP and Fedora Core 2.

I could use Ghost to replicate the drives on the other 25 but I don't
want to pay for any Ghost licenses. What's the easiest way to make an
image of this drive (both partitions) and then send it back out again to
the other 25 machines?

I was thinking of using the Knoppix CD and doing something with nfs but
I'm hoping that the expertise of the K12OSN list will keep me from doing
any wheel inventing at all.

;-) Paul
