Looking for a good boot CD that can image a windows 7 HD onto a USB Blu-ray burner

[Onceler]

and recover the image from the USB blu-ray burner.
I do not want to clone, that is not what I am after. I was hoping to find a recommended(by you guys) a free ISO to burn that can do this. I need to image all partitions on a single drive. I know that there is such a thing just that all my google searches are turning up clone software. Must have a GUI, I am completely lost without one.
Thanks

PartedMagic. It uses Clonezilla as an imaging program, and comes with many useful utilities. It costs $5, but is well worth it for time put into compiling the tools. You can also find it gratis using the usual suspects, which is perfectly legal due to the gpl. I encourage everyone to give the dev the pittance he asks for though.

You can also use Clonezilla live. That's libre and gratis, but doesn't come with all the other tools. In both cases, it's a terminal program(no gui), but if you can read, you can clone. it doesn't require the memorization of commands or switches. You're guided the whole way, but not on the level you are with Windows gui programs.

I didn't read anything in the description that would allow me to image my hard drive onto some blu rays using a USB 3.0 blu ray burner. Seems like more cloning software to me. But I will try it.

I know that both the tools lxskllr mentioned will be be able to make exact binary images of pretty much any disk and split into compressed image fragments and restore from them. The most likely sticking point you will encounter is Blu-ray support IMO. I only say that because I haven't tried BR with any linux myself.

The only difference between cloning and imaging is what you do with the images created.
