I have OS/2 running a rather complex piece of hardware (a scanning electron beam lithography system).
I have made backups of my hard drive, but it is tedious at best.
Optimally I would like a programme that will allow me to easily clone my <300 Mb boot drive.
I am running OS/2 ver 3.0.

Try Back Again/2 - www.cds-inc.com - it makes
file backups while the OS is running, and
the whole shebang can be restored perfectly
onto a formatted partition from these backups It has a sophisticated scheduler and REXX
hooks for pre/post backup use too!
Incremental backups can be scheduled
overnight for instance . . .
I've used it for years, and have recovered
from OOPS! many times :-)
NO OS/2 system should be without it IMHO
