Yep, dd, tar, dump. Depending on your needs. I find dd useful when you have (potentially lots of) indentical disks and you can take the machine down to boot off CD (Redhat in rescue mode or Knoppix), then you can mirror disks exactly. dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=8192 ... where sda is your original disk and sdb is the one you want to mirror to.
