Hello,
I have created a WinPE 2004 ISO image that I use to run some ADS capture and restore commands (using imgdeploy) and it works very well for capturing and restoring Windows 2003 images from a network share. However, I was also looking to backup and restore Linux systems from the same WinPE bootable ISO. Is this possible?
Unfortunately when I try running the ADS image capture command ("imgdeploy /c /p \Device\Harddisk0\Partition1 \\Server\Share\MyImage.img") I immediately get an error "unknown partition type".
Specifically, we have RedHat Linux 4.0 servers with EXT3 file system. When I run the DISKPART command from command line in WinPE, I see two partitions listed on my Linux server (with the Partition 1 listed as "Unknown", which I assume is the /BOOT partition). I was wondering if there is any way to snap an image of the server using ADS (or some other 3rd party utility) from a WinPE CD? I would also need to be able to restore the same image as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
