<p><strong><em>* This release of Clonezilla live (2.4.7-8) includes
major enhancements and<br>
bug fixes. </em></strong>*<br>
<strong><em> ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES </em></strong><br>
* The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This
release is<br>
based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2016/Jun/27).<br>
* Linux kernel was updated to 4.6.2-2.<br>
* Partclone was updated to 0.2.89. A btrfs issue has been fixed.<br>
* Cloudfuse was updated to 0.9+redbogit871a98f-drbl2, i.e. the
version from<br>
redbo with patches from Am1GO. Thanks to maple52046 (maple52046 <em>at</em><br>
gmail com).<br>
* Partclone-utils was updated to 0.4.1.<br>
* When option "-k1" or "-k2" in the TUI is chosen, "-icds" is on<br>
automatically.<br>
* Add "-batch" in the TUI for expert saving mode.<br>
* Provide an option to mount image repository again when failing
in ocs-<br>
live-repository. "ask_user" is a reserved name to be used as the
Samba<br>
domain and account and SSHFS account in the URI so that user can
input<br>
their own names. Thanks to Aaron Burling (aaron_burling <em>at</em>
lkstevens<br>
wednet edu) for these ideas.<br>
* If failing to mount sshfs and samba server as image repository,<br>
clonezilla now asks if retrying.<br>
* Use shorter name for fsck-related options, i.e. "-fsck-src-part"
is<br>
replaced by "-fsck", and "-fsck-src-part-y" is replaced by
"-fsck-y".<br>
* Reuse the parsed partition info when detecting the
data/swap/extended<br>
partitions. Thanks to starnavi for this suggestion. Ref: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://">https://</a><br>
sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Clonezilla_live/thread/ba256b4b<br>
* Add support for device /dev/nbd. Thanks to Mircea Dan for this<br>
suggestion. Ref: <a
href="https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Help/"><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Help/">https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Help/</a></a><br>
thread/d2d2a480/<br>
* Boot parameter ocs_preload now supports mount command for
nfs/cifs to<br>
preload files. E.g. ocs_preload="mount -t cifs
//192.168.120.2/images/ /<br>
tmp/cifs -o user=administrator,password=yourpasswd" will preload
files on<br>
cifs server to /opt/ in Clonezilla live environment.<br>
* Add a mechanism so that image repository can be auto mounted
with boot<br>
parameter ocs_repository in URI format, e.g.
ocs_repository="dev:///dev/<br>
sdf1" or ocs_repository="<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:smb://wa-domain;jack:mypass@192.168.7.25/">smb://wa-domain;jack:mypass@192.168.7.25/</a><br>
images". Thanks to Aaron Burling (aaron_burling <em>at</em>
lkstevens wednet<br>
edu) for this idea.<br>
* Live-boot was updated so that its toram parameter can be
assigned as<br>
multiple modules (e.g. "live,syslinux")<br>
* Add supporting for grub on EBR (Extended Boot Record) imaging
and<br>
cloning. Thanks to Bill Wright (bill <em>at</em> blug org) for
reporting this<br>
issue.<br>
<strong><em> </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>BUG FIXES </em></strong><br>
* Failed to mount OpenStack swift image repository. Thanks to
maple52046<br>
(maple52046 <em>at</em> gmail com) for reporting this issue.<br>
* Failed to restore the boot loader on EBR (Extended Boot Record).
Thanks<br>
to Bill Wright (bill <em>at</em> blug org) for reporting this
issue.<br>
* MBR (executable code area) data should be restored even it's GPT
disk.<br>
Some OS, e.g. ESXi 5.5 need that. Ref: <a
