Ping (Partimage Is Not Ghost) -- Backup and Restore Disk Partitions (-:
After a lot of tinkering i got it working, and since i like it and found no reference to PING on here, i thought i'd share it.
1) First Download the ISO.
2) You need to get a few files out of it. I used Deamon Tools to mount the ISO so you can just copy it. If you don't have Deamon Tools and don't feel like installing, try something like Magic ISO.
3) Create the directory
\custom\ping
and copy the files
ISOLINUX.BIN
BOOT.CAT
ISOLINUX.CFG
INITRD.GZ
KERNEL
to that dir.
4) in the custom.cfg file (in the custom folder), add this section:
Code: Select all
LABEL Ping
MENU LABEL Ping
KERNEL /custom/ping/kernel
APPEND initrd=/custom/ping/INITRD.GZ vga=normal devfs=nomount pxe ramdisk_size=33000 load_ramdisk=1 init=/linuxrc prompt_ramdisk=0 root=/dev/ram0 rw noapic nolapic lba combined_mode=libata ide0=noprobe nomce
Good luck.
