Download Clonezilla Live 2.8.1-12

Clonezilla is an open source program for creating disk images. Among other things, it is possible to make backups of partitions or of the entire hard disk, or a copy of a hard disk: a so-called clone. Clonezilla is therefore an open source variant of Macrium Reflect and Acronis True Image. The whole thing is based on a Debian distribution and it uses DRBL, Partclone and udpcast. Clonezilla live is intended for standalone computers, while with Clonezilla server and SE up to 40 computers can be imaged simultaneously. With version number 2.8.1-12 a new stable release of Clonezilla has been released and the changelog of that version looks like this:

Enhancements and Changes

• The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2022/Jan/03).
• Linux kernel was updated to 5.15.5-2.
• Language files ca_ES, de_DE, es_ES, fr_FR, hu_HU, ja_JP, pl_PL and sk_SK were updated. Thanks to René Mérou, Michael Vinzenz, Juan Ramón Martínez, Greg, Akira Yoshiyama, Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Kris, and Ondrej Dzivý Balucha.
• By default do not split the image file of a partition, ie, use “-i 0” when saving an image by ocs-sr. If the image repo is FAT, VOL_LIMIT_IN_INTERACTIVE will be set as 4096 when running ocs-sr in saving mode. Ref:
• boot-local-efi.cfg: Improved to detect hd1, hd2… Ref†

Bug Fixes

• update-efi-nvram-boot-entry: bug fixed for 2 or more ESPs on the same machine, unmount should be done within for loop.
• ocs-prep-cache: ignore the 1st 2 columns in /proc/partitions when comparing it for the cache files, since partprobe might change the major and minor numbers in /proc/partitions, while the blocks and device names (3rd & 4th columns ) will remain the same after part probe is run.
• ocs-get-dev-info: better way to run dislocker-find so that when it failed to load some lib, it won’t show the device’s fs is bitlocker.
• Force to use syslinux/isolinux 6.03. Do not mix that with 6.04~git20190206.bf6db5b4+dfsg1-3+b1 from Debian repo.
• Support dracut from CentOS 6 which exists in different path and no option”–tmpdir” for the restored CentOS 6.
