Creating entire disk images using fsarchiver
The fsarchiver application can save the contents of a disk partition to a compressed archive file. Unlike tar or cpio, fsarchiver retains extended file attributes and can be restored to a disk with no current filesystem. The fsarchiver application recognizes and retains Windows file attributes as well as Linux attributes, making it suitable for migrating Samba-mounted partitions.
