CLONEZILLA.... alternate to Norton Ghost

Clonezilla is a free software disaster recovery, disk cloning and
deployment solution.
Clonezilla is designed by Steven Shaiu and developed by the NCHC Free
Software Labs in Taiwan.
Clonezilla SE provides multicast support similar to Norton Ghost
Corporate Edition.

*Clonezilla Live*
'Clonezilla Live' enables a user to clone a single computer's storage
media, or a single partition on the
media, to a separate medium device. The cloned data can be saved as an
image-file or as a duplicated
copy of the data. The data can be saved to locally attached storage
device, a SSH server,
Samba Server or a NFS file-share. The clone file can then be used to
restore the original when needed.
The Clonezilla application can be run from a USB-flash-drive, a CD-ROM,
or a DVD-ROM.
Clonezilla requires no modification to the computer; the software runs
in its own booted environment.
*Clonezilla Server*
Clonezilla Server is used to clone many computers simultaneously across
a network.
This is done using a DRBL server and computer workstations that can boot
from a network.
