Available Linux-Distribution Release Clonezilla Live 2.8.0 , intended for rapid cloning of discs (only the blocks used are copied). Tasks performed by a distribution kit are similar to the proprietary product of Norton Ghost. The size of ISO image distribution – 325 MB (I686, AMD64).
Distribution is based on Debian GNU / Linux and in its work uses code such projects such as DRBL, Partition Image, Ntfsclone, Partclone, UDPCast. It is possible to download from CD / DVD, USB Flash and Network (PXE). LVM2 and FS EXT2, EXT3, EXT4, REISERFS, REISER4, XFS, JFS, BTRFS, F2FS, NILFS2, FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, HFS +, UFS, MINIX, VMFS3 and VMFS5 (VMware ESX) are supported. There is a mass cloning mode over the network, including the transmission of traffic in Multicast mode, which allows the initial disk to be cloning the source disk to a large number of client machines. It is possible both cloning from one disk to another and creating backups through saving the disk image to the file. It is possible to cloning at the level of entire disks or individual sections.
