I have a a software "Acronis True Image Home"

Is it possible to backup CentOS Linux?

on Windows do I need to create a bootdisk from Acronis and then boot it up on linux server?

I wanted to copy all the files from Server to External USB Hard Drive or via FTP

We need a little detail about what this computer is used for. If it's for "home use" I use VERY happily remastersys for debian systems:

You can get the same result on your distro with PUNGI:

You can obtain a live cd of your personal computer: wow (and, of course, restore it).
