Tar isn't really cloning. :)

Ghost4UNIX is. And it's free.

What program can image and restore  Linux partitions?

You had a couple of responces for actual partition imaging, so I'll go on a slightly different vein.

If you were just going for backup, or transfer of a linux system to another hard drive you can just use tar, preserve permissions, etc and tar up the filesystem and restore to another drive.

For cloning, we use either Tar and Netcat, Tar and MCat, or rsync for small changes.
