clonezilla is a good clone tool
- Free (GPL) Software.
- Filesystem supported: ext2, ext3, reiserfs, xfs, jfs of GNU/Linux, and FAT, NTFS of MS Windows. Therefore you can clone GNU/Linux or MS windows. For other file system, Clonezilla uses dd to dump the whole partition.
- LVM2 (LVM version 1 is not) under GNU/Linux is supported.
- Multicast is supported in PXEBoot Clonezilla, which is suitalbe for massively clone. You can also remotely use it to save or restore a bunch of computers if PXE and Wake-on-LAN are supported in your clients.
- Based on Partimage, ntfsclone and dd to clone partition. However, clonezilla, containing some other programs, can save and restore not only partitions, but also a whole disk.
- If file system is supported (ext2, ext3, reiserfs, xfs, jfs, fat, ntfs), only used blocks in harddisk are saved and restored. This increase the clone efficiency. For unsupported file system, sector-to-sector copy is done by dd in Clonezilla.
- By using another free software drbl-winroll, which is also developed by us, the hostname, group, and SID of cloned MS windows machine can be automatically changed.
- A single machine clone system without installation, Clonezilla live, is also available.
Changelog
Now the version number is synced. The same version number means same programs except the newer kernel and ntfs-3g are used in "-nk" files.
Some new features and bugs fixed:
- Based on Clonezilla 2.2.1-5, partimage 0.6.6 and Debian 4.0r1. For -nk version, kernel 2.6.21-2 and ntfs-3g 1.913 are used. Otherwise kernel 2.6.18 and ntfs-3g 20061031 is used.
- A TUI network config program ocs-live-netcfg was added.
- "No network" option was removed in the boot menu, since now the network setup is done when it's necessary (like sshfs, nfs...).
- cciss device (Ex. Compaq's SMART Array Controllers) is supported.
- Symbolic image file (Ex. hda1.aa is a link file) is supported.
- Two more options were added for ocs-sr: -o0 & -o1 (=-o before), which allows us to run programs in $OCS_PRERUN_DIR and $OCS_POSTRUN_DIR.
- Package pcmciautils, ncpfs, Packages dvd+rw-tools and udftools were added.
- Bug fixed: swap partition in lvm was not parsed correctly in ocs-onthefly.
- Bug fixed: nfs-common should be installed so that lockd can work.
- Bug fixed: A error when mounting samba server as clonezilla home was fixed.
- 1.0.5-7
- Based on DRBL 1.8.0-15 and Clonezilla 2.2.1-5.
