The mere fact you mention a dos chekdsk utility shows how far behind
the time you are. Most imaging siftware will check the disk partiton
before backing up.

ROFL.....
Indeed, most imaging software actually does a chkdisk/f - though it's
the software that runs it transparently and not through the command
line.

And to John, I'd also ask what happens if you decide to restore a
"disk-clone" backup taken from NTFS onto a Win32 disk?

Why would you do that? I'm not even sure it makes sense. Because its a clone
you'd restore the exact image over whatever was there, which would either be
the existing disk (in case of s/w screwup) or new disk (in case of bad
disk).
