does anyone know a easy way to f.i. create a full image of /dev/hda, put that to a external ftp server, and restore that image again with a bootdisk or so, to a new HD
 
tar.

Read man tar.

But before you can restore it you have to reboot to it.

done it with g4u. Send complete img through ftp, replace HD, and put the image back on it.
Then resize2fs to change partitionsize to the larger hd
