I think you should consider dumping partition data to some image ("dd
if=/dev/XYZ of=/abc/XYZ.image").

Benefits:
1) you could reinstall the machine without worrying about loss of
data/evidence/configuration.
2) you could examine disk contents many times later on some other
machine ("mount -t <fs_type> /path/to/XYZ.image /mnt/XYZ").
