We decided to bundle it with an Ubuntu 9.10 remix we created that we call the Carroll-Net Server Recovery Kit. The resulting backup files are standard partimage files, so recovery could be done either using Kleo in Recovery mode, or just firing up a copy of partimage from any Linux distro. It handles finding, suggesting & even mounting network targets, and it handles the details of invoking partimage correctly. It's a simple wizard style interface that walks a user through the process of creating a complete partition backup. We called our tool 'Kleo' (named after the Greek Muse of History & Archives). We decided to create a GUI wrapper around Partimage to handle these details. Not to mention, if you wanted to backup to a network destination, Partimage requires you mount the remote share before you fire up the GUI. The trouble has always been partimage's command line is a bit dense. It now supports Ext2, Ext3, FAT-16, FAT-32, HFS, JFS, NTFS, Reiserfs3, Reiserfs4, UFS and XFS. It's incredibly capable at making partition backups for quite a few different partition types. I'd like to encourage you to consider partimage. I know this question is somewhat older, but I thought I offer another solution.
