The further advaNtage of Ghost is that it can resize partitiions and
defrag filesystems as well as clone data, directly from one hardware
device to another. Considering that the typical Linux installation has
four partitions (including swap), this is 3 functions x 4 = 12 steps
in one automated utility. No comparable native Linux utility (yet)
exists to do this.
