Stable Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24 has been released.
This release of Clonezilla live includes major enhancements, changes and
bug fixes.
MAJOR ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES:
* The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This
release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2010/Sep/21)
* New file system support, btrfs, was added in this release. It has
been tested successfully with Ubuntu Maverick beta restoration (/boot is
ext4, the rest of partitions are btrfs), and OpenSuSE 11.3 restoration
(/boot is ext3, the rest of partitions are btrfs). //NOTE// btrfs is
still in the beta status, therefore this support is in testing, too.
* Russian language was added. Thanks to Anton Pryadko.
* Program makeboot.sh was improved to allow running with full path.
* Option "--force" was added for grub-install (grub2) when it's run
with option "-g auto".
* It has been improved about running grub reinstall. If failing to
run grub2 from the restored OS, Clonezilla will next try to use the
grub2 from Clonezilla live now.
* The Linux kernel was updated to 2.6.32-23.
* This release was created by live-build 2.0~a29-1, and new
live-initramfs, i.e. live-boot 2.0.5-1.drbl1, and live-config was
2.0.6-1.drbl1 are used. Because Live-boot and live-config are used in
this release, therefore if you manage the boot paramters by yourself,
you have to put the extra boot parameter "live-config" to make
live-config to work.
* Partclone was updated to 0.2.15.
* gPXE was updated to 1.0.1.
* The etherboot boot menu was removed since it's not maintained
anymore, and we have gPXE now.
* Package syslinux was updated to 4.02.
* Usplash was removed in Clonezilla live 1.2.6-11 since it's not
available in Debian Sid.
* Due to the change from Live-boot 2.0.3, the boot parameter to
assign static IP address has been changed. The format is:
ip=**[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NETMASK]:[HOSTNAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF]
[,[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NETMASK]:[HOSTNAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF]]***::
e.g.
ip=10.0.0.1::10.0.0.254:255.255.255.0::eth0,:::::eth1:dhcp
BUG FIXES
* The file system header will be cleaned only when the image of the
partition exists, i.e. it will not be cleaned before testing existence.
* The bug about failing to use partclone to do disk to disk clone
was fixed. Thanks to Steve Poe for this bug report.
