Update For Clonezilla live, the parameters that set the compression ratios are in the following config file: /etc/ocs/ocs-live.conf The values run from -1 (least compression) to -9 (highest compression). However, Z9 has a range of -1 thru -19. To modify the values, do the following: 1. Boot Clonezilla live. 2. Go past the windows that deal with language and keyboard. On the window that says 'Start Clonezilla' choose 'Enter shell' and then click OK. 3. At the command prompt type sudo nano /etc/ocs/ocs-live.conf...

Hello Cristian Thanks for the information about Rescuezilla. I downloaded Rescuezilla and tested it. As you wrote, it allows the user to adjust the compression ratio used when performing a backup. This is what I was looking for. Thanks

Hello: Question: Is there a way to increase the compression ratio of z9p to generate a smaller backup file? My situation: I backup my hard drive using Clonezilla live. I specify z9p as the compression option. Based on the size of the backups, my backup medium has space for 2 backups. If the backups were slightly smaller (about 10%) I could fit 3 backups on the backup medium. I ran tests using other multi-core compression options. The results were unsatisfactory because the backup files were larger...

Thanks Steven

Hello I understand that Clonezilla Partclone copies only those sectors the file system marks as containing live data. Clonezilla Partclone does not copy sectors marked as free-space. Assume a 100gb partition. 50gb is data files, 50gb is free-space. I run Clonezilla Partclone to back up the partition. I then wipe the partition such that all sectors contain binary zeroes. I then run Clonezilla restore-part to restore the 50 gb of live data back to the partition. Question: After the restore, what is...

In thread Multiple Window support in GNUCOBOL -- work in progress Chuck mentioned that he included the fix in his most recent compiler build. I downloaded the updated compiler (GnuCOBOL 3.3-dev.5336) and ran some tests and confirmed that cursor positioning on line 1 is working correctly. I would like to thank Chuck for taking the time to review my question and devise a fix, in a very short period of time. In the other thread, Eugenio mentioned that he tested the fix and confirmed that it is working...

Hello Eugenio Thank you for researching the problem I described. Hello Simon Would you like me to open a ticket for this issue? Thanks

Hello I seem to be having a problem positioning the cursor on screen line 1. The program displays a screen in which the user enters an employee number, then the program displays the employee data. Line 1 of the screen is a control line consisting of a 3 byte transaction ID, followed by a comma, and then a field to enter the employee number. For example: EEI,123456789 To position the cursor, I specify CURSOR IS CURSOR-POSITION in the Special-Names paragraph and define CURSOR-POSITION in Working-Storage....
