What is the best way to back up Xandros 4.5?

I have tried Clonezilla which has worked in the past on other distros but it keeps failing on me. I have tried Mondo which again I used on other distros but the backup goes fine the restore always fails. I thought of using dd but I am going to a different sized drive and I have never done that. I will be moving Xandros to another drive which is smaller but faster than where it lives now. Anyone have good instructions I don’t mind doing it manually as long as I know it works.
A little background this is on my laptop I will be doing the backup through an external USB drive so I will have to back up to an external hard drive swap the drives and then do the restore.

Seagate DiscWizard works quiet well on dual boot sytems.
However, Windows and at least one Seagete HDD is required.
And it cannot clone from a larger to a smaller drive.

Unfortunately I don’t have Windows and I am going from large to small so in this case it is not going to help. Thanks for answering though I will keep that one in mind for the future.
