[Clonezilla-release] Stable Clonezilla Live (1.2.6-59) Released

[Steven S. <st...@nc...>]

Stable Clonezilla live 1.2.6-59 has been released.

This release of Clonezilla live includes major enhancements, changes and 
bug fixes.
MAJOR ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES:

     * The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This 
release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2011/Jan/13).
     * Linux kernel was updated to 2.6.32-30.
     * Live-boot was updated to 2.0.14-1.drbl1, and live-config was 
updated to 2.0.14-1.drbl2.
     * Language files were updated. Thanks to Alex Ibáñez López, 
Zhiqiang Zhang, Gianfranco Gentili, Jean-Francois Nifenecker, and Akira 
YOSHIYAMA.
     * Option "-q1" (i.e. force to use dd) was added as an option in 
expert mode for device to device clone. This could be useful if you want 
to clone an encrypted partition.
     * Another example custom-ocs-2 was added. It can be used to save 
and restore dual boot systems.
     * //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

BUG FIXES

     * Command "ocs-live-dev -s -d /dev/sda1" failed to copy files to 
the output dev (/dev/sda1), it was using files linked. Thanks to Asou 
Y.S. Chang for this bug report.
     * Force to unmount image repository before rebooting/shutdowning 
Clonezilla live. Thanks to Manuel Borchers for reporting this.
     * The option "-j2" was not working when using restoreparts. Thanks 
to dzundam for this bug report.
