Clonezilla is een opensourceprogramma waarmee diskimages kunnen worden gemaakt. Het is onder andere mogelijk om backups van partities of van de hele harde schijf te maken, of een kopie van een harde schijf: een zogeheten kloon. Clonezilla is daarmee een opensourcevariant van Symantecs Ghost. Het geheel is gebaseerd op een Debian-distributie en het maakt gebruik van DRBL, Partclone en udpcast. Clonezilla live is bedoeld voor losse computers, terwijl er met Clonezilla SE tot wel veertig computers tegelijk van een image voorzien kunnen worden. Met versienummer 1.2.8-23 is een nieuwe stabiele uitgave van Clonezilla verschenen en het changelog hiervan ziet er als volgt uit:
Major enhancements and changes:Bug fixes
- The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2011/Mar/28).
- Linux kernel was updated to 2.6.38-1.
- Partclone was updated to 0.2.22.
- Live-boot was updated to 2.0.15-1.drbl1, and live-config was updated to 2.0.15-1.drbl1.
- Language files were updated. Thanks to Alex Ibáñez López, Zhiqiang Zhang, Gianfranco Gentili, Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Akira YOSHIYAMA and Anton Pryadko.
- New packages were added: disktype, ufsutils
- Memtest86+ was updated to 4.20.
- A mechanism was added to check if the saved image is restorable.
- A better mechanism was added to deal with multiple slices of a BSD system.
- "noatime" and "nodiratime" options are now used when mounting file system in prep-ocsroot.
- The boot parameter "nomodeset" was removed.
- The ocs_postrun boot parameter (and ocs_postrun1, ocs_postrun2, etc.) was added.
- By default partclone.dd is used instead of dd to process unknown file systems.
- The sgdisk program is used to process GPT by default. This makes the imaging and cloning of Mac OS better.
- The virtual block device (/dev/vd[a-z]) support was added. Thanks to Cyril Roos for providing patch.
- //NOTE// From Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24, if you manage the boot parameters by yourself, you have to put the extra boot parameter "config" or "live-config" to make live-config to work.
- //NOTE// From Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24, due to the change in Live-boot, the boot parameter to assign static IP address has been changed. The new format is:
ip=**[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NETMASK]:[HOSTNAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF][,[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NETMASK]:[HOSTNAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF]]***::
e.g. ip=10.0.0.1::10.0.0.254:255.255.255.0::eth0,:::::eth1:dhcp
- An issue with restoring a small, freshly formatted filesystem has been fixed.
- A bug where ocs-get-part-info failed to remove a temp file in /tmp was fixed.
- The failure of the -hn0/-hn1 option in some cases was fixed.
- A bug was fixed in which multiple network cards did not honor the boot parameter of ethernet timeout
