Hello,

I'm trying to clone only one partition of my hard drive. I have three primary partition :

C: (Windows and program files) - 50Gb [sda1]
D: (Dell Recovery) - 6 Gb [sda2]
F: (Documents) - 240 Gb [sda3]

Is it possible to clone only the sda1 partition (c:) on a usb drive and recover it later, I want to keep all the installed softwares?

I try Clonezilla but, in graphic mode, the only choice in the list is "sda", which is 320 Gb. I tried with the following script :

/opt/drbl/sbin/ocs-sr -q -c -z1 -i 4000 -p true savedisk "2008-11-25-17-img" "sda1"

But, when doing so, clonezilla tells me that sda and sda1 will be cloned. Is it possible to exclude sda?

Thanks

  Did you choose "saveparts" mode in this TUI http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/doc/01_Save_disk_image/images/ocs-08-save-img.png
  ?

  Oups... I didn't see that option. I'll try it and give some feedback.
  
  Thanks
