Great that your customer took the time to send some feedback.

Thanks to advice on this mailing list, I've just found out how easy it is to image the whole of a hard drive including the mbr using the Clonezilla boot ISO. I now have tested restore images of both the original state of the hard drive and my basic Ubuntu installation.

Just an idea in case the 'playing' results in some breakage or he/she wants to sell the laptop in its factory state a year or two down the road.

I found that Clonezilla boots fine off an old 512Mb usb stick made from the iso file using unetbootin 

cheers
