My disk is pgp encrypted so i can’t mount it and image it from outside, if i image it from inside, when i restore it i’ll need
to add pgp again.
So i booted off backtrack 4 in a usb disk, used old dd to image my drive, compress it and dump it to a nfs
mounted directory.
dd if=/dev/sda | gzip -c -9 > /a/disk.iso.gz
If i ever want to restore it i’ll do
gunzip -cd
/a/disk.iso.gz
| dd of=/dev/sda
