Hello!
I've made some cloning tests with SystemRescueCD 0.2.12_rc1.
Source and destination partitions were 10 GB. Source had 5 GB data
scattered around the disk. Destination was empty. Both partitions were on
the same disk. In case of NTFS, I losetup a big file on a rw mounted NTFS.
'raw' is a plain cloning between two partitions (so no filesystem on the
destination partition). Results,
