I am supposing this will not work - simply using dd to copy the booted disk /dev/sda for example to a file on an external hard drive. This would not be a good back as too many system file would be missed. right?

    Indeed. Clonezilla is cool but comes with a considerable learning curve and lots of text to read. Rescuezilla, based on Clonezilla, is easier.

      thanks for this, hadn’t heard of Rescuezilla before. I’ll have to take it for a spin.
