I was hoping someone could help. I want to create a "backup" partition. I want to create two partitions on my drive. One is a good install, which I want to then use clonezilla to copy the good partition to the broken/unused partition and have the restored partition boot up as usual.

Example, C: goes bad. D: is a "good" copy of C. C gets a corrupt registry. I restore D to C, C will then boot up as usual.

So, I need to do the clone with Clonezilla and the restore with the same. I see the part_...clone and restore. Will this do it?

How do I get the partitions? EDIT: I am using XP.

How can I do this?

Also, I know this is not the best thing for all occasions. I have a offline backup as well. I would like to have both. Thanks for any help.

I'm using Clonezilla if it matters.
