12 <h2>What is Mondo Rescue ?</h2>
13 </div>
[361]14 <p>
[358]15 <B>Mondo is reliable.</B> It backs up your GNU/Linux server or
16 workstation to tape, CD-R, CD-RW, NFS or hard disk partition. In the
17 event of catastrophic data loss, you will be able to restore all of
18 your data [or as much as you want], from bare metal if necessary.
[361]19 Mondo is in use by Lockheed-Martin, Nortel Networks, Siemens, HP,
20 IBM, NASA's JPL, the US Dept of Agriculture, dozens of
[358]21 smaller companies, and tens of thousands of users.</P>
[361]22
23 <p>
24 <B>Mondo is comprehensive.</B> Mondo supports LVM 1/2, RAID, ext2, ext3,
[358]25 JFS, XFS, ReiserFS, VFAT, and can support additional filesystems
[361]26 easily: just e-mail the <A HREF="/feedback.shtml">mailing list</A>
[358]27 with your request. It supports adjustments in disk geometry,
28 including migration from non-RAID to RAID. Mondo runs on all major
29 Linux distributions and is getting better all the time. You may even
30 use it to backup non-Linux partitions, such as NTFS.</P>
[361]31 <p>
[358]32 <B>Mondo is free!</B> It has been published under the GPL (GNU Public
33 License), partly to expose it to thousands of potential beta-testers
[361]34 but mostly as a contribution to the Linux community.

[361]82 There are dozens of regular contributors and over 400 members of the
[358]83 mailing list. The user base is estimated at between 50,000 and
[361]84 100,000.</P>
[358]85 <P>
[361]86 Mondo Rescue was first created because there was nothing like
87 it available at that time under a free license. Nowadays,
[358]88 Mondo is not the only good, free disaster recovery solution for
89 Linux. You may wish to try <A HREF="http://mkcdrec.ota.be"><B>mkcdrec</B></A>.
90 The software has been in existence for almost as long as Mondo, it
91 supports the same filesystems (including RAID and LVM), and its
92 author is friendly and helpful.</P>
