[Clonezilla-release] Stable Clonezilla live (2.4.5-20) Released

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

**** This release of Clonezilla live (2.4.5-20) includes major 
enhancements and bug fixes. ****

*** ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES ***
     * The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This 
release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2016/Feb/03).
     * Linux kernel was updated to 4.3.3-7. From Linux kernel v4, the 
default union file system has been changed to overlay, therefore if you 
edit boot parameter manually, you have to use "union=overlay". No more 
using "union=aufs". Due to the linux kernel change in Debian repository, 
no more i586 linux kernel, so now Debian-based Clonezilla live is only 
released with 3 architectures: i686, i686-pae and amd64.
     * Partclone was updated to 0.2.87-drbl2. A fat16 issue was fixed. 
Thanks to Łukasz Stefanowicz for reporting this. 
(http://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/bugs/237/)
     * New file system nilfs2 is supported in this release.
     * Now ocs-onthefly supports nvme device cloning, and can work for 
different types of disk cloning, e.g. nvme0n1 -> sda or vice versa.
     * Make ocs-install-grub run when it's a GPT disk with a special 
"bios_boot" partition exists in the machine using legacy BIOS.
     * By default the image integrity will be checked before restoring. 
The option "-scr" can be used to skip this checking. Thanks to Nabi 
OUMAROV (contact _at_ nabioumarov com) for the feedback.
     * The option "-sc" was replaced by "-scs" in drbl-ocs and ocs-sr. 
This will be easier to tell the differences between saving and restoring 
image. Option "-sc" is still working in the same way with "-scs", but 
might be dropped in the future.
     * Packages fatresize, nilfs-tools and fancontrol were added.
     * Add removing swapfile.sys in ocs-rm-win-swap-hib. Thanks to 
Bartosz Bątorek batorek _at_ gmail com> for suggesting this.

*** BUG FIXES ***
     * The size with more than one partition not expanding should be 
added to the later partition in ocs-expand-gpt-pt.
     * "Shoutdown" should be "Desligar" in luanguage file pt_BR. Thanks 
to Luciano (lboni2 _at_ yahoo com br) for correcting this.
     * Use parted to fill the last partitition to the end of disk 
because there might be some resudial in the calculation of 
ocs-expand-gpt-pt. Thanks to Conan for this suggestion. Ref: 
https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Clonezilla_live/thread/c5e92d87/?limit=25#080c
     * Avoiding TUI messages overriding the error messages in 
ocs-live-restore. Thanks to Stew Fisher fisher _at_ oncology ox ac uk> 
for reporting this issue.
     * Avoid using the preserved word of grub2 "prefix" in the grub.cfg. 
Thanks to Joey3000. (https://github.com/stevenshiau/clonezilla/issues/13)
     * Failed to deal with partition name with extra "p", like: *cciss*,
       *mmcblk*, *md*, *rd*, *ida*, *nvme*, Thanks to quozl for 
reporting this bug. (https://github.com/stevenshiau/clonezilla/issues/14)
     * Use fatresize to resize FAT file system instead of parted since 
resize function is no more in parted >= 3. Thanks to quozl for reporting 
this bug. (https://github.com/stevenshiau/clonezilla/issues/16)

Steven.
