there's another option:

if you need a / backup take a disk (also an usb one) go to a shell and then do a cp -a / /mnt/disk (assuming that the disk is mounted into /mnt/disk) and after some time which depends on the stuff installed you'll have a mirror version of / on the other disk. if you want it to be compressed, then do a tar on the mounted disk and you'll have a compressed image of your / partition.
then when you want to to copy it from the backup disk to the running disk do again: cp -a and you'll have the / running as it was when you made the backup. if you experience problems with running x then do
chmod 777 /home -R && chmod 777 /tmp -r && chmod 777 /var/tmp/kdecache-[your username] and then x would run again. the problem is that sometimes when doing the cp -a you can experience problems with the permissions on these directories when not using root.

I used the Knoppix 5.2 Live Cd, it is just no very conviniet to do it that
way.
