I was looking over this AskUbuntu question and don't feel that the OP's question fully answered. Is there a disk imaging utility for Ubuntu that allows the OS to be imaged while it is mounted, like Acronis or Macrium Reflect?

I'd like to be able to schedule disk images to run every so often, and that isn't really an option if I have to boot from a live CD/USB to make an image each time.

The Unix tool for this task is dd, which is described in the linked question. This can be scheduled using crontab or similar, and does not require booting from a live USB or CD.
