Image Backup of Ubuntu Desktop

Thread needs solution

I am using the Acronis boot disk build #6673, booting the IOS from CD. (ati home 2014)

Can I use this Boot Rescue CD to make an image backup of my small Ubuntu 14 Desktop installation and then restore OS and all files if hard disk fails ?

I use this all the time for my Windows Install on a different PC.

There is no dual boot to worry about.

Can the boot disk do this for me?

Regards, Tim

Hi Tim,
You can use boot media to back up your Linux install. However, there are limitations.

When booting from the Rescue Media, you cannot perform backups to disks or partitions with Ext2/Ext3/Ext4, ReiserFS, and Linux SWAP file systems.
