Clonezilla - Linux Imaging Distro

[Ziek88]

This is a fantastic distro of linux specifically made to create 100% replicas of your computer. I mean everything, not just files. It'll backup user accounts, everything you've installed. You load an image this thing created and all you have to do is run updates from the date you made the image and reactive windows (provided you are using windows)

I'm sure I'm not the only one who finds themselves frequently reformatting their computer for one reason or another. Tonight I will be due to hard drive failure. Sadly the one limitation of this OS is the hard drive you install the image on must be >= the original source drive so I'll be doing a scratch install. That said, would you folks like a guide on how to use this? It's not real hard to do but can be intimidating if you aren't at least semi tech savvy. It would be easy for me to make a guide while actually doing the process myself.
