    if it see's linux filesystems then it should work. if not, there is G4L or Gparted or Partimage
    which might be better

    Yeah Ghost does work. It supports Linux partitions but the cool thing is that Ghost does disk-at-a-time so that it'll work with any filesystem. When they say they support a filesystem it only applies to compressing images.

    Partimage that deltaflyer mentioned is an excellent tool but the downside (at least last time I used them) is that it works with partitions instead of disks so you would have to copy your MBR seperately which is a bit of a pain.
