Hello Linux People:

I am running RedHat 5.2. I am interested in setting up a means of
quickly getting a system back up in case of hard drive failure on the
root file system. I am wondering anyone has used dd to mirror the root
disk to a scsi tape device and then used the boot/rescue disk to restore
from the tape.

Is this possible? Can the tape device be created in rescue mode? Any
advice will be greately appreciated.
