Mondo Rescue is capable of a lot more than I need it for. Like the reader whose note started the search, I want to be able to recover from a catastrophic hard drive failure. I'd also like a simple way to upgrade my system to a new, larger hard drive without losing any data. Using the LiveCD backup functionality of Mondo Rescue is all I need. But others may want to use its NFS capability to back up over a LAN, or to tape, or to another hard drive....

Mondo Rescue is a proven industrial-strength backup and restore utility. Home users like me can make use of it, and so can corporate admins working across the LAN.
