like a charm, really quick (10Min image creation, 5 Min image duplication),

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Curious if anyone out there in
LIbrary Tech land is booting CloneZilla from a portable harddrive and if so how
is working out for you?<br>
<br>
Also, does anyone have a preference for a particular drive? <br>
<br>
CDWG has a 1TB Western Digital My Book for about $110 which sounds like a
pretty nice drive for cloning PCs on the go.<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
