I like the <strong>sfdisk</strong> method because its dump is in a readable form and you can easily use that info to recreate the partitions manually if needed.

I mean something like dd if=/dev/hda of=somefile bs=512 count=1 (or bs=446 when backing partition table only). Thanks Is there any advantage in using sfdisk over usual dd?
