Use partimage to restore fog images

[Jezzer]

I have this working now in a fashion, see what you think, any thoughts , improvements, would be good

1. All fog images need to be Multiple Partition Non Re Size. Give you the MBR file which is essential.
2. Use this command to load the mbr onto target disk [SIZE=12px][FONT=Courier][COLOR=#000000]sudo dd if=/pathtoimages/d1.mbr of=/dev/sda[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE]
3. The disk now has the exact layout of the cloned disk about to be imaged.
4. Load image files over the top of the partitions needing imaging. e.g. (win 7 machnie)

after MBR loading disk will have say dev/sda1 (reserved) and dev/sda2. Just load images d1p1 over sda1 and d1p2 over sda2.

Note. Resize in gparted will force a chkdsk in windows…if you leave resize till in windows no force check disk on first boot.

Tested with 7 , vista and XP images. All working.
7 looped a couple of time with the black and white boot manager window before then settling down and installing. Not sure why? But tested 3 or 4 times and it only happens once after loading.
