|

39 | Mondo Rescue was created in December 1999 as a utility to clone
|
---|
40 | Linux/Windows installations. Norton Ghost would not do the job, and
|
---|
41 | my boss wanted to jump on the Linux bandwagon. So, I wrote a few
|
---|
42 | scripts and shoehorned them into the latest Linux-Mandrake CD. Since
|
---|
43 | that time, Mondo grew into a disaster recovery suite for Linux and
|
---|
44 | Windows. Mondo forced me to learn about the kernel, its initrd
|
---|
45 | initial ramdisk, modules, library dependencies, disk partitioning,
|
---|
46 | and the myriad differences between the Top 10 Linux distributions.</P>
|
---|
47 | <P ALIGN=JUSTIFY>
|
---|
48 | The first formal release was made on February 18th, 2000. Mondo is
|
---|
49 | currently one of the top five Linux backup/restore programs. Mondo
|
---|
50 | has been compared favorably to ArcServe, Arkeia and BRU. Although
|
---|
51 | Mondo lacks the more advanced, enterprise-level features of ArcServe
|
---|
52 | and Arkeia, for workstations and small- to medium-size servers it is
|
---|
53 | ideal because it is small, fast, efficient, stable, comes with source
|
---|
54 | code, and is being actively developed and supported.</P>
