Disk drive backup and management

What's your favorite way to manage and backup a Windows or Linux hard drive? Especially if you maintain a dual-boot system?

I've had generally good experience with Acronis True Image because it's flexible. I've also had some issues with it, like when I tried to restore a Linux backup on a dual boot system, and the boot path lost all notions of the Windows OS. In that case, I had to do some creative dancing, just to get the boot path into shape again. But it eventually worked, and all was happy again :)

BTW, I've seen mention that Acronis doesn't work well with the new solid state drives. So heads up there; your mileage may vary.
