FarStone and Linspire Launch RestoreIT for Linux
FarStone Technology, Inc. and Linspire, Inc. announced a partnership to
offer a Linux version of FarStones Personal Disaster Recovery software solution, RestoreIT.
According to the companies, the software is designed to complement Linspires desktop Linux-based
operating systems, and it allows users to restore lost data or an entire system that has been damaged
due to computer errors or other common mishaps.
FarStones RestoreIT is a software program that simplifies data
and system recovery. The software tracks all changes to a users hard drive on a separate hidden
disk partition at incremental backup points. In the event of a disaster, a user can restore the system
and data that they have lost, as well as choose how far back they would like to go an hour, two
hours, etc. By clicking the spacebar, users can instantly restore their data, files, or a complete
system. Since it loads before the OS, RestoreIT will recover all files, system applications, personal
settings, and passwords. In addition to automatic backups per a user-defined schedule, RestoreIT
can also be configured to automatically restore to pre-defined backups on a regular basis.
