My understanding is the Drive Image file must reside in a FAT or FAT32 partition if it is to be restored? IMO this highlights the limitations of Drive Image. Later releases of Drive Image will alter the way we look at the possibilities. That is the way I have understand your view."
Yes, exactly--you are right, and this a fair rep of my view.



Exactly right?? NOT! The image can be on an local file system or installable file system accessible under DOS. You could easily restore an image off an NT server, Novel Server, or IBM Mainframe for that matter.

regarding all the rest of this discussion. Don't lose site that 1 lightning strike and all your KOT and stuff is Trash. My Jaz Carts and Tapes in my fire safe will be functional and have no such limitation. and in general backing up data is more important than KOT.
