	Where did the name Kleo come from?
	The name Kleo is from Greek Mythology. Kleo was the muse of history and archives. The parallel between history and backups is compelling. Backups are a snapshot of the past that demand preservation.

	How does Kleo create backups?
	The key technology under the hood is partimage. Partimage is an incredibly powerful tool, that we've always felt required significant technical expertise to use effectively. We always wanted a simple way to use this technology, without the steep learning curve. This was the birth of Kleo. What we think all users will appreciate is that Kleo is a compilation of many tools, sequenced in order. Everyone will find something to appreciate – event experts already familiar with partimage.

	What is the CnSRK?
	The Carroll-Net Server Recovery Kit is a bootable operating system. The CnSRK is packed with hundreds of powerful recovery tools. The CnSRK is an Ubuntu Remix, based on 9.10. (Note: there is no connection to or endorsement from the Ubuntu Project). We choose to build our Recovery Kit on top of this excellent base, which of course if derived from Debian Linux. Many thanks to the fine folks that are part of the Ubuntu Project, the Debian project and of course the Linux Community at large!

	How to Burn to CD-ROM
	The basics of how to create a bootable CD are pretty straightforward. Download the ISO file, and burn the file to a blank CD-R disc. These instructions assume you are running Windows XP, Server 2003 or Vista First, download the ISO file, and save it to your hard drive. Next, you’ll need a program to burn CD-R disc. There are dozens of excellent utilities available from the Internet. We recommend ISO Recorder http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm Insert an unformatted CD into your burner. Open Windows Explorer, browse to your ISO file Right-click and choose "Copy Image to CD/DVD".

	How to Burn Thumb Drive
	Transferring an ISO to a USB Thumb drive has a few more steps than creating a bootable CD. The process is download the ISO. You then format the Thumb drive, extract ISO contents to it and make the Thumb drive bootable. These instructions assume you are running Windows Vista First, download the ISO file, and save it to your hard drive. The rest of these steps can be run from a command prompt. Run CMD.exe and change into the folder you saved the ISO. Be sure to run CMD.exe as Administrator. Second, format your USB thumb drive (this example assumes Thumb is G: drive) format.exe G: /fs:fat32 /v:cnsrk /q Third, extract the ISO contents to the Thumb drive. We recommend using 7-Zip -- http://www.7-zip.org 7z.exe -x cnsrk.iso -oG: Finally, install a master boot record on the G: drive. You can use the Win32 version of syslinux that’s provided in the ISO G:\win32\syslinux.exe –ma -d /syslinux G:
