^^ Interesting. I tried using Paragon Drive Utilities last night and it kept spitting out 6GB backups for one XBMC install! I'm going to give clonezilla a try now.

Keep in mind that my image contains three bare installs. Meaning no library or thumbnails folder. I imagine fanart for a large movie collection would be substantial.
cheers

hmmmmm.... You are right! I didnt think about that. I wish removing the revo's hard drive wasn't such a PITA. I'll just connect another hard drive via the e-SATA port and do a fresh install there, which I'll use to create the image.

Yeah sorry, my upload speed is pathetic. The osx image was like 8gb, it would take days to upload. Im still playing with an ubuntu image, trying to get it as small as possible. I will post it but i might as well wait for dharma now.
cheers
