Windows 2000 Backup & Restore

[Ryan]

Hi,

I have gone through the Windows 2000 Disaster Recovery White Papaer and
found that to restore the system state requires the exact same disk
configuration. May I know how do I go about doing this. Let say there's no
RAID or mirroring, I have 2 H/D and 1 of the H/D needed to be replaced. The
damaged H/D is a 20G H/D, has 2 partitions.

How can I partition it back to the exact size? I know I can use the Windows
2000 CD to build my partition but the size I built would be differ (because
it's based on KB and 1KB=1024b), slight different would not have caused
problem, I supposed.

If I have a replacement of smaller size h/d, that mean I would not be able
to restore the system state?

Thank you for your time.

You might find a specific app eg Ghost might be the simpler option, no need
to be concerned then about hd size/partition
