Partition Image is a Linux/UNIX utility which saves partitions in many formats (ext2/ext3, reiser3, FAT16/32, HPFS, JFS, XFS, UFS, HFS) to an image file. The image file can be compressed in the GNU zip or bzip2 formats to save disk space, and split into multiple files Partition Image will only copy the data from the used portions of a partition and can work with large, very full partitions.
