Paul, Carl,

thanks for the helpful answers.

I see the problem restoring a windows client, but wouldn't it be 
possible to make a bare metal restore with 3 steps:

1) doing a bare-metal-restore with an image that has been created 
without backuppc but ntfsclone. This would restore the bootloader and 
the operating system

2) booting the client with a Linux Live CD and mounting its harddrive.

3) using tar (over ssh/or netcat) to write the backup from backuppc to 
the mounted harddrive on the client.




just an idea?!

- Kurt
