Software that can image and clone individual machines. Clonezilla Live can be used to image or clone individual computers using a CD/DVD or USB flash drive.
This page is a summary of the Clonezilla live site with additional notation and comment.
password
two accounts but only one direct login
- You can login as account "user" with sudo privilege, password is "live"
- You cannot direct login as root. Account "root" has no password set. Therefore you can not login as root, the only way to get root privilege is to login as user, and run "sudo -i" or "sudo su -" to become root.
install
All versions of Clonezilla live support machine with legacy BIOS. If your machine comes with uEFI secure boot enabled, you have to use AMD64 version of (either Debian-based or Ubuntu-based) Clonezilla live. So basically it ends up being clonezilla-live-2.6.4-10-amd64.zip that you will probably downlaod, or a slightly newer version depending on when you read this.
1. For USB flash drive or USB hard drive - use the zip file (not iso)
2. For running as an application under existing OS - use the zip file (not iso)
You can do PXE server or Live CD also, but those are not covered here, go read about it on their web site.
3. Using GParted: DEVICE -> Create Partition Table (msdos), then PARTITION -> New (File System: Fat32) then Apply (CTRL + ENTER)
4. Using GParted: PARTITION -> Format to (Fat32) then Apply (CTRL + ENTER)
flash drive
Format flash drive
- find where your flash drive is mounted
I simply use the command "fidsk -l|grep sd.." before I insert the flash and again after. It wont always be the same depending on the system and what other media is connected but as an example my flash is on /dev/sdc
remote access
When Clonezilla live boots, the ssh service is NOT automatically started. If you want to remotely ssh login into your Clonezilla live, you have to start ssh service by "service ssh start" from the host machine. Furthermore, the setting in /etc/hosts.deny does NOT block any connection so all you need do is start the service.
