Clonezilla is een opensourceprogramma waarmee diskimages kunnen worden gemaakt. Het is onder andere mogelijk om back-ups 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 Macrium Reflect en Acronis True Image. 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 server tot wel veertig computers tegelijk van een image voorzien kunnen worden. Er is met versienummer 3.3.1-35 een nieuwe stabiele uitgave van Clonezilla verschenen en de changelog van die uitgave ziet er als volgt uit:
Enhancements and changesBug fixes
- The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2026/Feb/20).
- The Linux kernel was updated to 6.18.9-1.
- Partclone was updated to 0.3.45.
- Implemented mechanisms for cloning 4kn disks to 512n/e disks and 512n/e disks to 4kn disks.
- Improved functions do_ntfs_512to4k_fix and do_ntfs_4kto512_fix by updating Total Sectors (Offset 40) for NTFS.
- Added a new program, ocs-pt-512-4k-convert, to convert 512B to 4kn partition tables.
- Rewrote ocs-expand-gpt-pt to be more robust, including 512B to 4kn conversion if mismatched sectors are detected.
- Added a mechanism to change the master key from a LUKS header.
- Rewrote ocs-get-nic-fw-lst to retrieve firmware lists directly from Linux kernel modules.
- Added two more info files in image dir: fdisk.list and blkdev.json.
- Included makeboot64.cmd instead of makeboot64.bat in the live system.
- Improved BitLocker support: partitions now work on the clone server (ocs-onthefly), and the system now prompts for passwords again if entered incorrectly.
- Enabled the "-edio" (Direct I/O) option in the TUI by default.
- Restricted the "-smtd" and "-smmcb" options enabled by default to non-x86-64 machines.
- Added the 'lsb-release' package to the live system.
- The time synchronization mechanism can now be disabled if ocs_time_sync="no" is assigned in the boot parameters.
- Updated Brazilian Portuguese translation.
- Fixed an issue in function udp_send_part_img_or_dev where multicast sending from raw devices failed for partitions with unknown filesystems; it now utilizes partclone.dd.
- Fixed a bug where ocs-get-dev-info failed to identify extended partitions on MBR disks.
- Removed extra LVM and LUKS information in dev-fs.list
- Resolved a bug related to restoring MTD/eMMC devices.
- Appended '--rescue' to partclone options to bypass mtdblock read errors.
- Fixed a bug where ocs-sr could not find devices using a PTUUID.
- Updated ocs-live-run-menu to set the TERM as fbterm so box-drawing characters display correctly.
- Improved ocs-blk-dev-info efficiency and removed double quotation marks from model and serial outputs to prevent menu breakage.
- Updated ocs-cvt-dev to avoid name collisions during the conversion process
