Hi,
You could look at "REDO Backup" for complete offline / bare metal HD & Partition images
http://redobackup.org/
I have been looking at Systemback,
http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014...ntu-14-04/
It allows you to create windows like "Restore Points"
It also allows you to create a "Live Image" whilst LL is running.
It then gives you an option to create a "Live Boot" USB stick to re-install from.
I've done the 1st Bit, I've tested it "Live Boots" O.K it does...
I now just need to test the re-install option works.
