I have been using Ubuntu for a while now though not heavily. I want to try out the new 10.04 as I was not all that happy with 9.10. I would like to backup my entire Ubuntu System so if the upgrade goes south like it probably will and has every time in the past that I can restore it easily. Now in Windows I would use either Paragon Backup or Comodo Backup. So, I was wondering if there is a complete backup system like this for Linux. I have looked at several, but most only back up the home directory or specific directories.

I just don't want to spend days reinstalling everything. Does anyone know of a good solution.

Oh, I am using 64-Bit Ubuntu 9.10

:confused:

I recommend Clonezilla (for both systems, Ubuntu and Windows):

Thanks that worked. Surprisingly though this time the upgrade went quite smoothly and I had no problem.
