Hi, I am trying to clone a drive using the DD portion of the clonezilla CD. I am looking to use this command: dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb What happens is I seem to be getting impatient since there is no progress indicator. I keep doing a control + C & then it appears to stop with a progress. I was curious, is there an additional command that i could put so it would display some sort of status? The 2TB drive is really time consuming. Thanks, Rich |

So why you use dd instead of Clonezilla TUI? If you really want to use dd and get some progress message when it's running, you can try partclone.dd, it's available in Clonezilla live, too. For more info, run: partclone.dd --help Steven.

Steve, I would very much prefer to use clonezilla. I need a bit by bit copy of the hard drive. I tried a few times & clonezilla says it cant recognize the partition which is why I am looking toward DD. I was planning to use this command for a DD transfer (if you think it will work): dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/sdd conv=notrunc & DDPID=$! ; sleep 1 ; while kill -USR1 $DDPID ; do sleep 5 ; done Thanks, Rich -----Original Message----- From: Steven Shiau [mailto:st...@nc...] Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2010 6:47 AM To: clo...@li...

Steve, Is partclone.dd on the clonezilla CD? Do you know what the proper command would be to copy everything (with the status) from SDA to SDB? Sorry for asking to be spoonfed but I am not 100% clear on the CLI & I don’t want to mess up my source.

Hi Rich, Yes, partclone.dd is on Clonezilla live CD. To clone /dev/sda1 to /dev/sdb1, for example, you can: partclone.dd -b -s /dev/sda1 -o /dev/sdb1 Steven.

partclone.dd -b -s /dev/sda1 -o /dev/sdb1 is only for partition to partition. For disk to disk, you can: partclone.dd -b -s /dev/sda -o /dev/sdb Steven.

The destination disk has to be equal size or larger one than the source disk. However, after that, you might have to manually deal with the boot manager on the destination disk.

I will go one step further, I changed the SDB to SDD (secondary sata slave) and I am getting the same message. Stranger, is when I do the cat /proc/partitions I still show SDA & SDB, when SDB should really be SDD. Still lost but I am still trying. ________________________________________ From: Richard Klein [ri...@ri...] Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2010 3:06 PM To: clo...@li...
