Versie 2.3 van Rescuezilla is uitgekomen. Met dit programma kan een imageback-up van een partitie of harde schijf worden gemaakt. Ook kan het worden gebruikt om een harde schijf te klonen, of de inhoud van een image te bekijken en losse bestanden eruit te kopiëren. Rescuezilla is volledig compatibel met Clonezilla en kan overweg met virtuele images van bijvoorbeeld VirtualBox, VMware, Hyper-V en QEMU. Ook kan het de grootte van partities aanpassen en per ongeluk verwijderde bestanden terughalen. De release notes voor deze uitgave kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.
Release notesDownload the 64-bit version of Rescuezilla: rescuezilla-2.3-64bit.impish.iso (recommended). There is also an alternative Rescuezilla v2.3 ISO image based on the Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal) long-term support release: rescuezilla-2.3-64bit.focal.iso which on some machines may be able to boot more reliably than the recommended Ubuntu 21.10 (Impish) release above.
Flash the Rescuezilla image to a USB stick using balenaEtcher (this will erase all data on your USB stick). Reboot your PC and boot from USB. If you have trouble reaching the desktop, try the 'Graphical Fallback Mode' menu item.
The main additional feature for Rescuezilla v2.3 is basic image verification, as well as a new "rescue" option to force filesystem errors to be ignored. Virtually all partclone-based tools other than Clonezilla always ignore errors using partclone's --force option, which I think is a bad idea. Some bugs and important feature requests from Rescuezilla v2.2 continue to remain yet-unaddressed, including unfortunately the highly requested "persistent partition" feature as it still requires further changes and testing. Sorry I could implement more for this release, I was focused on moving from Australia to America to start a new job.
I intend to release a feature update before February 2022, in addition to the scheduled 6-monthly May 2022 feature update to try and maintain the project's velocity. Here is a partial list of what’s changed in Rescuezilla v2.3:
- Implemented image verification feature (#30)
