Live Linux image file in ISO format based on the Linux from scratch documentation (LFS) and intended for backup and restoring of whole partitions. Can be burned and booted directly from a CD or integrated to a PXE/RIS environment.
Creates a virtual drive which is seen by the system as a floppy disk drive, hard disk or CD/DVD drive. You can mount images from the command line, install and configure without needing to reboot the system.

Saves an exact image of a hard disk partition or an entire hard disk to a compressed file, even if Windows is running on it. Generates bootable systems from the backup.
Generates disk images and performs backups of the system partition - even on the operating system currently running. Can save images onto a USB drive, FireWire drive, DVD or onto the network with high rates of compression, according to the manufacturer. Offers system restore via a live CD containing a Linux derivative.
Backs up selected local hard disks by creating an image of the data medium which can be restored at any time. Can also save only the clusters currently being used on the hard disk, to avoid creating an image of the entire hard disk. From version 0.2 onwards, this program supports disk snapshots that allow Windows partitions to be saved while in use.
Creates images from partitions and offers a more intelligent way of dealing with read errors than dd, meaning it’s better suited to corrupt hard drives. dd_rhelp is the recommended front end.
Tool for imaging and backing up logical drives and partitions. Secures drives, including those currently in use, using Microsoft’s VSS. Capable of restoring images without having to reboot or turn off the PC.
OS independent Java utility which allows you to mount raw disk images. It first analyses the raw images and then creates a formatted VMDK file that can be used to mount the image directly.
