                                     with
                  Linux disk imaging and bare-metal restore

                                      by

               Jerome Boutaud              Stephan Lawton
               Solutions Engineer          Senior Director of
               Acronis Inc.                    Strategic Marketing
                                           Acronis Inc.

      Last month Brian Martin from Martin Consulting discussed his
      personal experience with disaster recovery in a real world
      situation.  This month Jerome Boutaud and Stephan Lawton
      will be discussing and demonstrating the nuts and bolts
      of disaster recovery with different Linux distributions.
      They will also discuss the differences between image-based
      backup and file-based backup, why the distinction is so
      important in the recovery phase of a disaster, and the
      advantages and disadvantages of each.
