When you are finished, it would be wise to boot from a Knoppix CD
and connect an external USB HD (sdb) and do this in order to
backup your whole Win NT disk:

   sudo su -
   mkdir /mnt/sdb1
   mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1
   dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/sdb1/WinNT_backup.img

Remember to first format sdb1 to a file system type that allows
for really big files. (E.g. ext3 or reiserfs)

Now, to restore your NT disk, you only have to do this:

   sudo su -
   mkdir /mnt/sdb1
   mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1
   dd if=/mnt/sdb1/WinNT_backup.img of=/dev/sda
