1. Do not choose "-k1", let Clonezilla clones the exact partition size 
for you. Make sure it can boot, then
2. Use GParted live (http://gparted.sf.net) to enlarge the partition you 
want, and do not touch the hidden partition.

[Clonezilla-live] Restoring Dell image to different/larger drive/partition

[Steve P. <Ste...@de...>]

I am using Clonezilla 1.2.4-28 to clone a Dell E4300 Windows XP laptop. I've noticed that there is a hidden partition (sda1 - FAT16) which contains the Dell utility. Windows boots from sda2 and we have a data directory on sda3.

The laptop comes with a 160GB. If I insert a 250GB drive and proportionally size the drive, the system fails to boot (no blue screen) or we get a NTLDR (0xc000000e).

If I don't do a proportional resize, the image loads fine.

I don't know of a way to reimage without the Dell partition, outside of a complete rebuild, but I cannot expand to a larger disk.

I have also tried doing a backup of the Windows partition (sda2) and force it to sda1 but I've had no luck with that.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Steve

You can check the file packages.txt in your Clonezilla live 
20100330-karmic, search "partclone", if it's 0.2.8-1drbl, then we are 
talking about the same one. Since this is a minor update, so the size is 
the same. However, you can compare that with md5sum or sha1sum, they 
must be different.

OK, so now 20100330-karmic is the fastest one, good!

Hi James,
Yes, we found there is an issue about partclone 0.2.7 performance. 
Therefore another Clonezilla live 20100330-karmic was uploaded with 
partclone 0.2.8 included. This issue should have been gone.
Could you please give it a try?
Please let us know the results.
Thanks.

Re: [Clonezilla-live] on-the-fly performance

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

Right now I do not have real machines which I can test. Therefore I can 
not give you the numbers.
If anyone on this forum has such numbers to share, please share that.

BTW, there is a performance improvement in partclone 0.2.8, and it's now 
included in clonezilla live 20100330-karmic. Could you please give it a 
try? To see if any big difference.
Please let us know the results if you try that.

Regards,
Steven.

Re: [Clonezilla-live] on-the-fly performance

[Lukas G. <luk...@co...>]

Both SATA Disks, the destination is a virtual machine but I did some
IO-Performance tests with dd on the virtual machine. It is definitely
able to write and read with more than 20MB/s. (I did dd if=/dev/sda
of=/dev/zero bs=100M count=10 etc.)

The network can't really limit the speed, so I don't know what is could be.

What's your experience with the speed? Is it faster?

I'll do some tests on my own with dd and netcat or so.

((sorry, forgot to click the reply-all button ;) ))

How about the speed when you save the image?
What's the disk types in the source and destination machines? SATA? 
PATA? USB? Or?

[Clonezilla-live] on-the-fly performance

[Lukas G. <luk...@co...>]

Hi,

whats's you experience with the onthefly migration (that partclone over
netcat thing) especially perfomance?

I never get more than ~300MB/min (=~ 5MB/s) in a Gigabit network which
is very dissappoiting. I already tried it without compression etc but I
didn't get more speed. (Further the machines are fast enough to do it
faster than 5MB/s with compression).

Is that a partclone issue? Have you any ideas?

Regards,
Lukas

Re: [Clonezilla-live] clonezilla message: something went wrong!

It means Clonezilla will try to use fsck to check and fix the integrity 
of the file system.

[Clonezilla-live] Stable Clonezilla Live 1.2.4-28 Released

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

This release of Clonezilla live (1.2.4-28) includes major enhancements, 
bug fixes, and language translation updates.

MAJOR ENHANCEMENTS:
* New file system support: UFS of FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD. It has been 
tested successfully for imaging FreeBSD 8.0, OpenBSD 4.6 and NetBSD 5.0.2.
* New file system support: VMFS of VMWare ESX.
* 686 kernel is available in this release, so multi-core CPU is supported.
* XZ/Lzip compression, and parallel compression, pxz and plzip, were 
added. You can choose "-z5", "-z5p", "-z6" or "-z6p" in the expert mode. 
If your machine has multi-core CPU, please use the i686 version of 
Clonezilla live then the -z5p and -z6p options are available in the 
expert mode.
* Now both syslinux and isolinux are included in Clonezilla live iso and 
zip file. This will avoid confusing.


BUG FIXES
* Delay unmounting the Windows partition when removing hibernation ans 
page files. since the mounted partition was not aware so fast. This 
should fix this "partition busy error": 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/drbl/forums/forum/394007/topic/3559920
* Delay unmounting the testing grub partition, since on some of the 
GNU/Linux distributions, the mounted ntfs partition was not aware so 
fast. This should fix this "ntfsfixboot I/O error issue": 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/drbl/forums/forum/394007/topic/3559920
* Improve all the scripts by avoiding use "rm -rf" as most as possible.
* "nosplash" was appended in failsafe mode and safe graphic mode so that 
Clonezilla usplash won't be started by default.
* A workaround was added in prep-ocsroot to ensure module nfs will be 
loaded when mounting nfs4 server.
* Some other minor bugs were fixed.

LANGUAGE TRANSLATION UPDATES
* All the language files were updated. Thanks to Juan Ramon Martinez, 
Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Gianfranco Gentili, Annie Wei, Akira YOSHIYAMA 
and Zhiqiang Zhang.

[Clonezilla-live] clonezilla message: something went wrong!

[Zoltan K. N. <ker...@gm...>]

Hi,

Can someone help me, I constantly get this massage while using clonezilla:

Log file says this:

Partclone v0.2.0 (Rev:358M) http://partclone.org
Starting to clone device (/dev/sda1) to image (-)
Reading Super Block
Calculating bitmap...
extfsclone.c: bitmap free count err, free:6243391


I'd like to clone my full (sda) drive to an external drive (sdc1) which is
formated to ntfs.

I used clonezilla before with succes, what is this message? My sda is 80 GB,
the destination drive is 160 GB.

Thanks,

expert mode.
    * Now both syslinux and isolinux are included in Clonezilla live iso 
and zip file. This will avoid confusing.


BUG FIXES
   * Delay unmounting the Windows partition when removing hibernation 
ans page files. since the mounted partition was not aware so fast. This 
should fix this "partition busy error": 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/drbl/forums/forum/394007/topic/3559920
   * Delay unmounting the testing grub partition, since on some of the 
GNU/Linux distributions, the mounted ntfs partition was not aware so 
fast. This should fix this "ntfsfixboot I/O error issue": 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/drbl/forums/forum/394007/topic/3559920
   * Improve all the scripts by avoiding use "rm -rf" as most as possible.
   * "nosplash" was appended in failsafe mode and safe graphic mode so 
that Clonezilla usplash won't be started by default.
   * A workaround was added in prep-ocsroot to ensure module nfs will be 
loaded when mounting nfs4 server.
   * Some other minor bugs were fixed.

LANGUAGE TRANSLATION UPDATES
   * All the language files were updated. Thanks to Juan Ramon Martinez, 
Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Gianfranco Gentili, Annie Wei, Akira YOSHIYAMA 
and Zhiqiang Zhang.

It's because the firmware of e100 is Non-free. The stable Clonezilla 
live only uses everything from the "free" category of Debian.
To address this issue, you can use Clonezilla live 20100308-karmic in

Re: [Clonezilla-live] validating imagaes

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

If your image was saved by partclone, you can use the command 
partclone.chkimg to check that.
Remember by default the image of a partition is compressed, so you have 
to uncompressed first, then use partclone.chkimg to check that.

[Clonezilla-live] Intel 82557/8/9/0/1 Ethernet Pro 100 (rev 10) networking card no longer supported?

[<jur...@le...>]

Dear all.

Using Clonezilla 1.2.3-27, the Intel 82557/8/9/0/1 Ethernet Pro 100 (rev 
10) refuses to come up.

Error message in console when trying to bring it up:

Requesting e100/d102e_ucode.bin
e100_request_firmware: failed
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory

When using Clonezilla 1.0.9-10, the network card works without a hitch.

Anybody an idea what happened?

Kind regards,

Jürgen Depicker

Hi,

Is there a way to make sure if an image is valid and will be able to
recover?

ntfsclone is just an example, if the image format is partclone, you can 
use partclone to handle that:
http://drbl.sourceforge.net/faq/fine-print.php?path=./2_System/68_manually_partclone_restore.faq#68_manually_partclone_restore.faq

However, if you can, using virtual machine is an easier solution.

Yes, but I might want to do ext3 partitions too - and I may want to convert back 
   after changes.  Should gzip and either ntfsclone or partclone handle it?

[Clonezilla-live] access saved image on server

[Les M. <les...@gm...>]

Is there a handy (or even not-so-handy) way to convert the partition 
images saved by clonezilla into full image files that could be 
loopback-mounted and modified, and then convert them back?  I can think 
of some instances where this would be handier than having to go back to 
real disks to make changes.

[Clonezilla-live] SOS :-)

[jellad t. <jel...@gm...>]

hello

I have a sata hard drive of a client machine who has two partitions sda1=
70GB and sda5  = 100GB.

the kernel that this machine load when booting with *etherboot *is not
detecting the sata hard drive *:-(.*


so I change the kernel and initrd (manually) of the drbl server by another
newer version. and fortunately his walking, and udev in the

client machine detects the sata drive and the backup operation starts
successfully *:-)*

but at the end of the operation I found in drbl partimag server that the
size of sda1.img = *4kb* !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and the

size of sda5.img = 5GB :-(

I think no problem for sda5 because my original partition does not contain
too much data and the file ".img" is compressed.

but for sda1* :-o* .

 I checked the size available in my */home* partition of the server and I
discovered that it is used at *100%*. AHHH I said

that's why !!! . I make room and tried again to save the disk, but
sda1.imag still = *4Ko* !!!!!!!!!!


I tried to changed the mode  of my hard drive from "auto" to LBA" and
rebuild the opéartion, but the processus of buckup

unbootable and client crashes without reponce.


what is the solution please.???????

*Note:* i have an old version of drbl server ( 4 or 5 years ago) and I like
to solve  the problem without reinstalling a new version of drbl


1000 thanks
