Hi All

Just wondering if there is a port that lets me create a bootable clone of my
boot disk without too much messing about?

Ideally it would:

1) perform incremental backups like rsync

2) work on both a mounted volume and over a network

The aim would be to be able to boot from it with no extra effort other than
changing the boot disk at startup.

Any ideas?

Michael
