Transferring disks with partimage

[Shahar Dag]

Hello

I am using clonezilla http://clonezilla.org/
  1.. I boot my source computer from the clonezilla cd
  2.. create a copy of the local hard disk to the network
  c.. I boot my target computer from the clonezilla cd
  d.. copy the image from the network to the local disk
  e.. if local disk is larger the the disk of the source machine, I boot from Ubuntu live CD to fix the partisions
  f.. if you cloned the system disk, don't forget to change the host name of the target computer
good luck
Shahar

  Following my question of 07/12/09 I would like to know if anybody has 
  experience with transferring partitions over the network to another system.
  As I wrote I want to transfer partitions (> 10) to another system on one 
  disk. I found I can use partimage to make an imagefile and transfer it 
  either directly or indirectly to the other system.
  However, I have the following questions:
  1. When I restore the image do I need an unformatted partition?
  2. Can I combine several partition images into one restored image?
  I hope somebody has experience with it. Googling I didn't found relevant 
  information.
