Make CD-ROM Recovery 0.8.4 - A disaster recovery CD-ROM maker.

about:
mkCDrec (Make CD-ROM Recovery) makes a bootable (El Torito) disaster
recovery image, including backups of the Linux system to one or more
CD-ROM(s) (multi-volume sets). Otherwise, the backups can be stored on
another disk, NFS/CIFS disk, or (remote) tape. After a disk crash or
system intrusion, the system can be booted from the CD-ROM and one can
restore the complete system as it was. It also features disk cloning,
which allows one to restore a disk to another disk (the destination disk
does not have to be of the same size, as it calculates the partition
layout itself). Currently, ext2, ext3, minix, MS-DOS, FAT, VFAT, Reiserfs,
XFS, and JFS filesystems are supported. It can restore disks in Software
RAID and LVM mode. It supports the One Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR)
mode, which simulates a bootable CD-ROM on tape.

Changes:
Support for Fedorea Core 3, uDev, and LVM2 are finally included. Network
recognition and configuration have been improved. mkCDrec will recognize
and enable USB CD-ROM devices at boot time (e.g. with Blade servers).

Release focus: Major bugfixes
