[nzlug] GParted for recovery CD?

[Sid Bachtiar]

Hi,

I was looking for an equivalent of Norton Ghost for
Ubuntu/Debian/Linux when someone told me about GParted
(http://gparted.sourceforge.net/index.php). I've been searching and
reading about it but still not sure if it is really what I'm looking
for. I'm hoping someone here might be able to guide me a little bit
more on this.

I have Ubuntu installed and running well on one of my old machines.
I'm looking for a way to create a snapshot of the system in ISO
file(s), burn it to a CD (or several CDs), then incase of my system
turns to mess, I want to be able to use these CDs to restore the
system.

Kind Regards,

Sid
