Hello!
I use Redo Backup to back up all my PCs, laptops, and netbooks onto a 1TB external HD. It will also back up to and from a network drive.
Like LL, it's a LiveCD, based on Ubuntu, that can be installed onto either a CD or a USB flash drive (it's only around 350MB or so). Redo is as easy as it gets. The LiveCD also has GPartEd for partitioning drives, and Disk Utility, which I use to mount and unmount individual drives.
It backs up the whole drive (both Windows and Linux partitions), so even if the drive fries, you can restore it to another drive, as long as the drive is the same size or larger.
If I just want to back up a single partition, I use Clonezilla for that...

A gun in your hand is worth more than a whole police force on the phone.
