The problem you are having is because you (apparently) put everything on a disk or partition. In the unix world we never do that for production. if you categorize your software to "base", "devtools", and the other and put them on different partitions, you won't have this problem. cheers Medi On Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 2:44 PM, Steve Poe <Ste...@de...> wrote: > I am not sure if I am asking the question correctly, but we're wondering > if Clonezilla can do layered imaging? > > For example, we have Dell laptop in which we build a base line image with > Windows XP (and now Windows 7).

I am not sure if I am asking the question correctly, but we're wondering if Clonezilla can do layered imaging? For example, we have Dell laptop in which we build a base line image with Windows XP (and now Windows 7). The base image is typically an Office suite, Internet browsers, and printers. We also have developers image for our employees who use development tools (C++, cygwin, SSH, etc.). We have to maintain both types of system images. We'd rather be able to use clonezilla to create packages to layers to we have one main image. Is something like even possible? Thanks. Steve Save the Date! Join the Revolution at DemandBetter 2011.

Hello Using the latest and greatest (1.2.6-24-i686) to build a live USB, I noticed this issue when restoring a Windows partition after running Linux, either as Beginner or Expert: Clonezilla leaves the partition ID to "Linux" instead of updating this to "NTFS/HPFS". As a result of this, when rebooting, Windows complains with "autochk application not found", and just reboots endlessly. The work-around is to boot with a Linux live CD (Clonezilla or equivalent), and run "fdisk" to change the partition ID accordingly. HTH, Gilles. |

Hello I'm still not sure how Clonezilla handles the bootloader in the MBR when restoring an image into a partition. Does it _always_ restore the bootloader, so that I don't end up with either the Windows bootloader trying to boot Linux, or GRUB trying to boot Windows without GRUB's configuration files? According to the documentation, through the "-g" option, it appears that Clonezilla will restore GRUB in the MBR if any partition is Linux and contains GRUB's configuration files. Also, the "-t" option is set by default, so Clonezilla will restore the MBR: Here, does "MBR" mean the whole 512 bytes sector, or just the 440-byte bootloader? Thank you. PS: The Clonezilla contains links to the mailing lists and a web-based forum: Are e-mails sent to the mailing lists copied to the forums, or are those two totally separate? If the latter, which is more active: The mailing lists or the forums? |

You can try something like this: http://drbl.org/faq/fine-print.php?path=./2_System/87_create_clonezilla_iso_from_zip.faq#87_create_clonezilla_iso_from_zip.faq i.e. edit the files in the clonezilla live zip file, convert it as iso image.

Our IT team loads Clonezilla images from a Samba share. In rare occasion, even when the image appears to load properly, Windows acts odd and blue screens appear. Then, if we reload the image, most of the time everything seems fine. This does not If were we to use the MD5/Checksum option when creating the image, will loading the image verify against the checksums? I've not actively used this option before. Thanks.

Stable Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24 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 2010/Sep/21)
* New file system support, btrfs, was added in this release. It has
been tested successfully with Ubuntu Maverick beta restoration (/boot is
ext4, the rest of partitions are btrfs), and OpenSuSE 11.3 restoration
(/boot is ext3, the rest of partitions are btrfs). //NOTE// btrfs is
still in the beta status, therefore this support is in testing, too.
* Russian language was added. Thanks to Anton Pryadko.
* Program makeboot.sh was improved to allow running with full path.
* Option "--force" was added for grub-install (grub2) when it's run
with option "-g auto".
* It has been improved about running grub reinstall. If failing to
run grub2 from the restored OS, Clonezilla will next try to use the
grub2 from Clonezilla live now.
* The Linux kernel was updated to 2.6.32-23.
* This release was created by live-build 2.0~a29-1, and new
live-initramfs, i.e. live-boot 2.0.5-1.drbl1, and live-config was
2.0.6-1.drbl1 are used. Because Live-boot and live-config are used in
this release, therefore if you manage the boot paramters by yourself,
you have to put the extra boot parameter "live-config" to make
live-config to work.
* Partclone was updated to 0.2.15.
* gPXE was updated to 1.0.1.
* The etherboot boot menu was removed since it's not maintained
anymore, and we have gPXE now.
* Package syslinux was updated to 4.02.
* Usplash was removed in Clonezilla live 1.2.6-11 since it's not
available in Debian Sid.
* Due to the change from Live-boot 2.0.3, the boot parameter to
assign static IP address has been changed. The 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
* The file system header will be cleaned only when the image of the
partition exists, i.e. it will not be cleaned before testing existence.
* The bug about failing to use partclone to do disk to disk clone
was fixed. Thanks to Steve Poe for this bug report.

Hi, Can someone please explain a few basic concepts of Customization support in Clonezilla. I read how one would prepare a custom script and run /opt/drbl/sbin/ocs-iso -g en_US.UTF-8 -k NONE -s -m ./custom-ocs But can you explain to me that at what point does this script get invoked. In other words, when does the control (thru rc files and such) is transferred to such custom scripts. I am assuming it is after the splash screen, but is it before language and keymap selection or after ..somewhere.... The sequence I currently see is - present splash screen - present language selection - present keymap selection - start clonezilla or shell - etc I would like to customize it so that my script gets invoked either before or after splash screen. Thanks Medi |

That's normal. Different kernel uses different config, and the kernel in
Clonezilla live 1.2.5 and 1.2.6 see most of the disk as /dev/sd*, not
/dev/hd*.

I mean you:
1. Boot clonezilla live
2. Choose to enter command line prompt
3. Run this command:
sudo /sbin/blkid
Then post the output messages of the above command.

Hi William, Which version of Clonezilla live did you try? Did you try 20100908-maverick? Steven.

Interestingly this does not happen on an older Macbook Pro. Any ideas as to what would cause the live CD to fail to boot? I tried (just for kicks) the Ubantu and newer Debian Live CDs with no joy. Gives a COMReset error with errno=-16. Then failed to boot debian, etc. I was thinking maybe it is the SATA operation on newer drives, but that seems odd. Not sure why that would cause a failure. The CDs work on windows boxes just fine. > > Any ideas? > > Thanks, > -- Steven Shiau<steven _at_ nchc org tw> <steven _at_ stevenshiau org> National Center for High-performance Computing, Taiwan. http://www.nchc.org.tw Public Key Server PGP Key ID: 1024D/9762755A Fingerprint: A2A1 08B7 C22C 3D06 34DB F4BC 08B3 E3D7 9762 755A |

I have figured out how to read the filesystem type from the superblock.... Looks like superblock on ext2 and ext3 starts at offset 1024 for a length of 1024. The ext2 magic code is 2 byte code ( EXT2_SUPER_MAGIC of value 0xEF53 ) . So, I dd(1) 2048 bytes out dd if=/dev/sda2 of=/tmp/2blocks bs=1024 count=2 I then use od(1) to and read 2 bytes from offset 1024 + 53 (some magic offset where fs type is)=1080 od -x -j1080 -N2 /tmp/2blocks 7b5a This is not oxEF53 which is the ext2, ext3 FS type. hence mount(1) can not work with it. Looks like this product (the one I am cloneing) vendor is playing FS type change game. Ok, I'll change it to what I want and then change it back. So I rolled up a handy dandy perl script to change FS type on the first superblock. And mount still fails. Do you know if mount(1) checks all the superblocks to make sure they are consistant? I am almost there to crack this case.

Hi Steven, The posting was pointing out that on the clonee box (being cloned) my OS sees a hda and sda while when I boot to clonezilla, both flash and sata disks are being seen as sda and sdb. Per your recommendation and usage of blkid(1) and sda (a flash drive for /boot and / ) and sdb for other stuff. # blkid -p /dev/sda /dev/sda PTTYPE="dos" # blkid -p /dev/sda1 # echo $? 2 # blkid -p -u filesystem /dev/sda2 # echo $? 2 So mount(1) fails and blkid(1) is failing....is there any options for blkid to debug further...

From the message you posted:
===================
Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 17 136552 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 18 540 4200997+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda3 541 1846 10490445 83 Linux
<snap>
===================
/dev/sda2 is swap, did you mean you want to mount /dev/sda3 actually?
Or please run:
sudo /sbin/blkid
then post the results.

Hi Les,
No LVM....this is an embedded device/appliance (I am cloning), a flash drive
contains /boot and / (root). Here is the fdisk and dmesg
[root@meditest ]# dmesg | grep hda
ide0: BM-DMA at 0x30b0-0x30b7, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:DMA
hda: PQI IDE DiskOnModule, ATA DISK drive
hda: max request size: 128KiB
hda: 2047248 sectors (1048 MB) w/0KiB Cache, CHS=2031/16/63, DMA
hda: cache flushes not supported
hda: hda1 hda2
EXT3 FS on hda2, internal journal
EXT3 FS on hda1, internal journal
[root@meditest]# fdisk -l /dev/hda
Disk /dev/hda: 1048 MB, 1048190976 bytes
32 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1015 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2016 * 512 = 1032192 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 1 131 132047+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 132 1015 891072 83 Linux
Do you know of any tool that can read the superblock to examine the FS type.

Yeah, I agree with Les. For desktop machines I always manually
partition so I can just use "regular" partitions. I do use LVM on large
servers where there is a reason for it.
Probably the easiest way to take a peek into that LVM file system is to
boot to the appropriate redhat installation CD (RHEL4?), and type 'linux
rescue' at the boot prompt. (I think that's right; it's been a while
since I did it.
Follow the prompts. It will offer to look for your root filesystem, so
it should easily find the lvm partition(s).

The installation is probably on LVM. I've seen directions somewhere on
how to detect and mount the volumes inside them but can't remember
where. And I tend to avoid LVM because I haven't seen good
documentation on how to recover from errors on them.

Hi Bill, Same result with ext2 and mounting on /joe This root partition is recognized as ext3 type on the box (being cloned, can I called it clone-ee vs cloner). The clonee is RH AS4.0 (RedHat 4) about 2007 and kernel 2.6.9.* . So whatever mount(1) version and/or VFS version is placed in clonezilla, it should be able to read that. Is there any tools to actually read the superblock and see what type is recorded? Thanks On Wed, Sep 15, 2010 at 12:26 PM, Bill Gurley <gu...@io...>wrote: > You might try mounting as ext2.
