[plug] Partimage boot disk or cd

[Chris Caston]

Thanks mate,

Actually I just use those options generally when backing up my home
directory or creating CD's with drivers / utilities etc. I never really
thought about what those options did I just read them on a howto.
 
I will try again after breakfast.

regards,

Chris
