Hi,
This is my partition layout

Code: Select all
# parted -l
Model: ATA ST3160215AS (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 160GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Disk Flags:

Number  Start   End     Size    File system     Name  Flags
 1      1049kB  30.0GB  30.0GB  ext4
 2      30.0GB  156GB   126GB   ext4
 3      156GB   160GB   3999MB  linux-swap(v1)


Is it possible to create an image of the root filesystem in other words the installation so that it can be restored later ?
