Rapc,

Yes, burn them as separate bootable cd iso images.

You could use either the 32 bit main edition or the 64 bit adition, but I would suggest starting with the 32 bit main edition.

This obviously belongs to a topic somewhere - as a single post it is rather confusing

I thought Fred's comment was directed at me.

I admit to using the terms imaging and cloning nearly interchangeably all the time...

Given Husse's comment above, I can say that I'd love to see this turn into a thread about doing full system backups and restorations under Linux -- with tips from those experienced in doing so.

My only success has been with dd, and I only managed that by following someone else's howto.

Maybe it was, but I was just as guilty of mixing up the two.

I'll merge the topics - I hope. The moderator panel is a bit kinky in this respect
