Imaging is a great way to do it. Isn't there a FOG open source project? http://sourceforge.net/projects/freeghost/files/

I use product called ShadowProtect in the Windows world.

Subject: [TriLUG] Linux Backup and Restore to totally wiped partition

Gang:

Having moved off of Apple products about 18 months ago, one thing I miss is Time Machine. Time Machine let's me boot using the O/S install disk, select "Restore from Backup" and two hours later I'm back to where I started.

I use the built-in Ubuntu backup solution for my personal information, but I would like to use something else for my training room machines.
I'd like to be able to install a clean build, back it up, then after class restore it to the exact state it was when the backup was taken.

Any suggetions?
