Activity for partclone-utils

    I get the same issue on Arch Linux, partclone-utils fails silently unless I pass -D in which case it fails with an error message. I found that errors like /dev/ndb0: cannot connect: No such file or directory show up in journalctl. I think there are two problems: error messages are not shown to the user and don't set the return code to a nonzero value (they're only logged), and either imagemount is broken or I'm calling it incorrectly. Is there a diagnosis or fix planned?

    Thanks for your interest in this program. I'm merging your changes as nothing looks to crazy. Feel free to continue to create Merge Requests and perhaps becoming the defacto maintainer of this program. I never got around to switching Rescuezilla from partclone-nbd to an update partclone-utils as I originally intended.

    I've had success with this tool I wrote called lzopfs, similar to archivemount. You get best results with parallel xz compression (pixz).

    Hi Amiga Lemming, As a temporary workaround, try following the guide I've written here which documents how to use the partclone-nbd tool (rather than this partclone-utils tool) in your standalone Linux environment. You'll of course first need to download and build the partclone-nbd source code (from here), but since you've already appear to have done this for partclone-utils it shouldn't be much of a problem. Hopefully that helps. The Rescuezilla graphical frontend will always provide the easiest...

    I try to run imagemount, but it does not seem to have an effect. I have not used NBD (Network Block Device) before. I run the example from the manpage: $ imagemount -d /dev/nbd0 -f mypartition.partclone -r Launched in daemon mode: All logging output being written to the system log. It does not emit an error. Is /dev/nbd0 a device that must exist before running imagemount or is it something that imagemount creates? If the first case applies, how would I create /dev/nbd0? If the second case applies,...

    I have edited your post to fix the formatting. What platform are you trying to compile partclone-utils for? I see from some of your previous comments you mention macOS. I haven't yet tried partclone-utils on that platform, and won't be for some time. It may work, though I don't know macOS's level of support for the required Network Block Device dependency. You may prefer to create a Rescuezilla USB stick for an easy environment that can run on Intel-based Mac machines, and then you can open a Terminal...

    Patrick, I have accepted your merge request. I did a quick code review and it looks good to me, and if there's a better way to do the Automake compilation/linking it can be easily fixed as a patch on top. Also the unit tests are no worse than they were previously. And as it's already been 8 days and you know our agreed policy is to merge any reasonable looking code after 1 week to help prevent reasonable improvements from waiting for months/years to be one day merged: I think I will send Merge Requests...

    Yes, that filename should definitely be relative to the current directory by default, unless an absolute path is provided. I don't think the risk of breaking scripts is that important here. Because as far as actual functionality goes, imagemount hasn't never been particularly stable.

  • P.Rouleau P.Rouleau posted a comment on merge request #10

    I was forgetting to point out one point: I am not sure if the modification to src/Makefile.am. I didn't play with makefile for a long time and I am still unfamiliar with Makefile.am features. I tried to define a line like libchecksum_a_SOURCES = libchecksum.c and adding libchecksum.a to a few places but the linker was giving errors. So I ended up adding libchecksum.c to libpartclone_a_SOURCES. I wonder if there is a better solution.

    Great work! Yeah I was thinking there was "Refresh" button, but couldn't remember. I've used it before. The user-experience on Sourceforge is definitely not as polished/refined as GitHub. Right now that's not a strong enough reason to switch to GitHub. If we find that third-party tools (eg, the build bots Circle-CI and AppVeyor) work better on GitHub, that would be a reason to switch.

    Yes, I prefer to avoid mixing tabs and spaces. Even if partclone also does it, partclone seems to prefer spaces. Let's stick purely to spaces and ensure all files are consistent. Your .editorconfig file looks good to me. Yes, I was looking at your most recent commits so I did see your note about v11 being required.

    Sorry, in [1], I proposed to use only spaces for indentation and you agreed and suggested to use a formatting that was close to what is used in partclone itself. Turns out partclone use the mixed indentation too (but not consistent). Unless I did not give priority to the right files? The main reason for me to propose to use only spaces is because I could not configure my editors to follow the mixed rule. However, now that I have found clang, it is possible to configure VS Code with an extension to...

    Cool, that looks like a great command (and the version tag is programmatically extractable with git describe --tags). I will continue using the subfolder approach going forward encapsulate the command in a simple script tracked within the git repository. Just to re-iterate I have already re-uploaded v0.4.3 and v0.4.2 tarballs with the subfolders present.

    Hello, It is not a show stopper to have no subfolder. It just makes packaging a bit easier, at least for Alpine and perhaps others. I figured tar can do this and apparently it can using --transform ver=0.4.3 tar cvf /tmp/partclone-utils-${ver}.tar --transform "s,^,partclone-utils-${ver}/," . This will prepend a sub folder inside of the created tarball. It could be integrated into any scipts relating to tagging a release. I am suprised SF does not automate this. I took a quick check of their Wiki...

    OK, as you have requested I have deleted the v0.4.2/v0.4.3 releases from yesterday and re-uploaded the archives with a subfolder, to be more consistent with past releases. I was aware of the difference, but hoped to remove the pattern of using a subfolder because in my opinion it duplicates information that's already found in the tarball's filename, and its way more inconvenient (and therefore potentially more error prone) to create such a tarball using eg, tar --exclude-vcs -cvzf ../partclone-utils-0.4.3.tar.gz...

    Hello, Thanks for the quick reply. Glad to see the project will be maintained. Being able to mount the disk images is such a handy feature. Certainly tagging previous releases in git would be great for grabbing from source directly. I noticed the new tarballs differ from 0.4.1 releases where the sources are in a directory 'partclone-utils-0.4.1' and in the 0.4.2/0.4.3 they are not in a sub drectory. Would it be possible to have this consistent across the releases? Again, thanks for the response and...

    Hi Sean, You are correct: the current latest partclone-utils tarball on Sourceforge was v0.4.1 from way back in 2016, and there wasn't a tarball release for the v0.4.2 source code despite this thread from 2019 having accepted George Prekas' changes adding partclone v0002 image format support (where he bumped the version to v0.4.2). Two months ago, in response to my merge requests, the original author of this software (the user above named 'P') graciously offered me administrator privileges on this...
