First way is t use Unix "dump" utility. <a href="http://www.linuxscrew.com/2007/08/13/move-linux-to-another-hard-drive-dump-restore-backup/">Here</a> is an example how to use this utility. To create dump of whole filesystem (let say root / filesystem) you can use the following command: dump -0uan -f - / | ssh artemn@192.168.0.1 "dd of=/root/dumps/dump-l0.bak" This will create full dump of root filesystem and will store it to /root/dumps/dump-l0.bak at 192.168.0.1. Make sure your server has access to 192.168.0.1 before you perform this command. After dump is finished and is /root/dumps/dump-l0.bak you can use restore command as it's described <a href="http://www.linuxscrew.com/2007/07/27/moving-linux-to-remote-server-over-ssh-via-third-server/">here</a>. Good luck! Taurai Mhokore, there are several ways to get done this. First way is t use Unix "dump" utility. Here is an example how to use this utility.
