As stated, it is pretty obvious if it doesn't work. It didn't work for
me. My off-board IDE controller didn't load in time so the disk attached
didn't show up. I didn't try to figure it out. Good luck, it was pretty
cool (if only it had worked).

I heard about it on the sourcetrunk podcast:

I use it all the time. While I have heard of people having trouble with
it, it's always evident right away. Install it, burn the first cd, boot
from it and do a compare. Odds are you'll love it. If it doesn't work,
it can be a bit of a pain to figure out why.
From mailing list postings I think 64 bit is a bit dicey currently, and
the latest SuSE might have some issues.
The current maintainer is active on the mailing list, and making
improvements regularly.
I've imaged dozens of desktop machines with it, and as long as I'm not
restoring SATA images on IDE boxes or vice-versa it works great. (that
can be done, it's just not straight forward)
