My last attempts with mondorescue were successful only if I was doing a bare metal restore to the same hardware. (ie. IBM x345 to x345).
The problem I ran into is when using different hardware. When I last tried it, mondorescue created a bootable cd image using the current loaded kernel. This meant that the current scsi_hostadapters were compiled in as well. Since the hardware that I was going to had different scsi_hostadapters, it would not recognize the hard drives.
