I was present for the Backula presentation and it was a good presentation
and I've implemented this on some of my important files.
I have a customer that is wanting baremetal recovery for his linux server
which is currently on an older Dell1950, if something were to happen, I dont
think I would be able to find the exact hardware, possibly different raid
controller and NICs.
The question: Anyone know of a backup system that can do baremetal recovery?
Open source is prefered of course. I see alot of articles and possible
products available.

Our Windows solution doesnt work on the "real" servers. I have plenty of
resources, (2) 1GbE connections to a cisco 2960G with a 6TB raid6 box
connected. Prefered method of sending the data would be a local UNC for now.

Thanks,
Charles "Redbulls n Pall Mall" Bird
