What should I use for backing up/cloning a linux computer?

I used to have norton ghost and acronis for windows, which I really liked. Is there a comparable package on linux?

Ya there are plenty.





Freeghost

Partimage

This one is great but is not capable of cloning from a larger disk to a smaller disk, working with individual disk partitions, or creating or restoring image files (locally or otherwise). If thats not your situation this is what Id recommend.

Personally I like clonezilla, but whatever does it for you.
