Yes, you do not need to compile them but you need to build the CD to host them.

Yes, this is a nice guide.

It raises some questions, though.

First, why is this guide located around half of a FAQ page which
contains over 100 entries between

# Is there any way I can save image to CD-RW or DVD-RW directly ?
# Is that possible I can put clonezilla live in my harddrive which
already has an OS installed ?

and

# When I use Clonezilla server edition to do a multicast clone, the
client machines just keep waiting, any hint ?
# I'd like to translate DRBL/Clonezilla to other language, how can I help ?

Some organization of the FAQ would be helpful.

The word build which is usually associated with obtaining a useful
program image from the sources only appears in

# How to Build and Install Partclone on Fedora 11 x86_64?

The word source appears in

# Where can I find the DRBL live or Clonezilla live source codes ?

which is nowhere near the

# How to create Clonezilla live from scratch ?

Also the page is styled such that the text is very hard to read
(because the background color is set but link color is not and the
link color from my system theme is hard to read on your white
background).

Further the FAQ is not searchable by content because the answers are
only revealed once a question is clicked.
I could possibly find my answer by page search if the answers were
available because the answer provides many useful keywords although
the question does not.

Hint: many FAQ pages are organized such that they are divided into
multiple sections of related questions and they have all the questions
listed on the top with answers coming after that and there are in-page
hyperlinks form the top list to the answers.


Another question is since clonezilla live is self-hosted what purpose
is that "source" published as separate tarball?

Can clonezilla be also built from that source or is it a red herring?

Thanks

Michal
