Hello,

My two machines are not connected, so I was thinking if there is someway to
create the
image on some DVD. A great amount has gone in installing software that I
need and many
had to change that I dind't keep track.Therefore, I am looking for exact
image.

Your two suggestions are good, and i will look into them.
