I want to clone a ext4 filesystem which ends in the following error:

Partclone v0.2.89 http://partclone.org

When I format the partition as ext3, cloning is possible without any errors. I think this is a bug.

    Additional information:

    The ext4 filesystem is fully initialized at the time of cloning.

    "Calculating bitmap... Please wait... extfsclone.c: bitmap error at 17 group." ->
    Did you try to choose the opton "-fsck-y" (or -fsck-src-part-y for older version of Clonezilla live) when saving an image?

      Yes, I checked the filesystem with the clonezilla option and also before
      cloning with e2fsck -f. The filesystem was clean.
      Even if the partition was fresh formatted with no data on it, this error
      remains.

    Could you please tell us in detail how you create that Ext4 file system? On which verson of GNU/Linux, and how you create that. We'd like to reproduce the issue here, and if it's reproducible, it could be fixed.
    Thanks.

      I do not own this disk and notebook any more but because of the very new
      hardware it was necessary to install a Debian jessie backports kernel
      linux-image-4.6.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 (4.6.3-1~bpo8+1)

      I tried 2 methods to create the ext4 filesystem, both with the same result:

      mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
      and
      mkfs.ext4 -E lazy_itable_init=0,lazy_journal_init=0 /dev/sda1

    This is weird. I just could not reproduce this issue here. Attached you can find the results about formating /dev/sda1 as ext4 and saving it as an image successfully.
    Which version of mkfs.ext4 did you use?

      Hello Steven,

      thanks for testing.
      As I'm not able to provide further details any more and because you
      cannot reproduce this behavior my bug report may be closed.
