Hi,
For backing up a complete drive i use Clonezilla.
Works well and is accessible.
Clonezilla Live boots off a usb stick or cd.
Its basically debian with an automatically starting clonezilla.

Greetings,
Simon

Betreff: [Blind-sysadmins] Some backup and UEFI questions
I'm performing background research, and asking questions on mailing lists, in
preparation for an attempt to install Linux alongside the existing Windows
environment on my Lenovo P51 laptop.
What are the most accessible options for creating a backup of the existing
drive and its Windows partitions, before I make changes?
I've installed several distributions of Linux before, but on BIOS-based
systems, and without another operating system installed. UEFI and Secure Boot
complicate the situation. I've asked on a Linux User's Group list as well, but any suggestions that subscribers here can offer (or good links taht I might
any advice that subscribers here can offer, or links to good references taht I
may not ahve found, would be welcome.
The laptop also has Intel Management Engine firmware, but it hasn't been
configured. It may enable the UEFI menus to be made accessible - but I haven't
looked into the details yet.
