Hey Group! I was wondering if anyone knows of an app that will backup a system FULLY and create a bootable ISO to CD or DVD. By fully, I mean, once I get all the packages I want installed, security updates installed, all configurations, tweaks, files, etc... I want to be able to make an image (similiar to Norton Ghost) in the event I need to re-install.

Thanks!

I would recommend using something like the sysrescuecd, http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page , partimage is a ghost alike tool.

Why not sure Ghost. It works for me/ Also Acronis works great as well, if you have that.

On the linux side there is always Systemrescue (http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page) has Partimage inside, and Ghost4Linux (http://sourceforge.net/projects/g4l) just to name two.
