Ghost works fine for me, I use it all the time to clone my hard drive
with multiple partitions (windoze, Mandriva, and Studio to Go!). I use
the Norton Ghost 2003 version, you can find a Norton Systemworks 2003
disk for about $8 if you search on pricewatch.com. The only caveat is
that you have to run "rescue" to rebuild the LILO on the cloned disk, at
least that's what I do with the Mandriva partition being the boot
partition. Cloning can be a real life saver if you tinker a lot or want
to avoid exhaustive software reinstallation in the event of a hard drive
failure. I also recommend installing a few removeable hard drive bays
($15 each) in your box if there's room. It makes cloning and disk
switching a lot easier!
