The problem with it is when you decide to change the base, the bottom layer, all images go obsolete and you have to recreate the hierarchy all over. Side by side creates a collection of things, you connect them together at run time.

To: "clonezilla-live@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:clonezilla-live@lists.sourceforge.net>" <clonezilla-live@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:clonezilla-live@lists.sourceforge.net>> I am not sure if I am asking the question correctly, but we're wondering if Clonezilla can do layered imaging? For example, we have Dell laptop in which we build a base line image with Windows XP (and now Windows 7). The base image is typically an Office suite, Internet browsers, and printers. We also have developers image for our employees who use development tools (C++, cygwin, SSH, etc.). We have to maintain both types of system images. We'd rather be able to use clonezilla to create packages to layers to we have one main image. Is something like even possible? Thanks. Steve Save the Date! Join the Revolution at DemandBetter 2011.
