Changelog

ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES from 2.8.1-12

    The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2022/May/22).
    Linux kernel was updated to 5.17.6-1.
    Partclone was updated to 0.3.20.
    This release supports APFS (Apple File System) imaging/cloning now.
    Add LUKS support. Basically a better mechanism than dd is implemented. //NOTE// It's recommended to encrypt the image when saving the LUKS device.
    Update language files de_DE, el_GR, es_ES, fr_FR, ja_JP, hu_HU, pl_PL and sk_SK. Thanks to Michael Vinzenz, Stamatis Mavrogeorgis, Juan Ramón Martínez, Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Akira Yoshiyama, Greg, kris and Ondrej Dzivý Balucha.
    Add wavemon, memtester, edac-utils, shc and uml-utilities in the live system.
    Remove s3ql from the live system.
    A better mechanism was implemented to check GPT/MBR format of a disk. This is a workaround to deal with ChromeOS Flex partition table. Ref: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-parted/2022-04/msg00001.html
    https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Clonezilla_live/thread/688ce74fb1
    Add the dummy option "-k0" for creating partition in ocs-sr and ocs-onthefly. It's the same as default action. Just easier for us to explain.
    Add memtester in the uEFI boot menu.
    Boot parameter use_os_prober="no" now skips running os-prober. Thanks to Bernard Michaud for this idea. Ref:
    https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Clonezilla_live/thread/b96b4eee21/?limit=25#d97b
    Add a mechanism to skip using devices list cache. If the boot parameter use_dev_list_cache=no in the boot parameter, then the devices list cache mechanism won't be used.

BUG FIXES

    Show the prompt that ocs-iso & ocs-live-dev can not be run in netboot env. Thanks to Constantino Michailidis. Ref:
    https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/patches/19/
    Fixed the issue that update-efi-nvram-boot-entry created empty boot menu.
    Program pixz has no option to stdout with "-d". Therefore program pixz was replaced by xz since using "-T 0" works the same. Thanks to nurupo for reporting this issue.*

Changelog

    ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES from 3.0.0-26:

    The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2022/Jun/12).
    Linux kernel was updated to 5.18.5-1.
    Add packages ngrep, duf, duff and dfc in the live system.
    Add more options in boot parameters to be parsed, including: extra_pbzip2_opt, extra_lbzip2_opt, extra_plzip_opt, extra_lz4mt_opt, and extra_xz_opt. Thanks to ottokang for this request.
    Update live-boot as 1:20220505.drbl1, and jfbterm 0.4.7-49.drbl2 (sync the version number with that of Fedora).
    The option --rsyncable of zstd causes bad performance. It can be 5 times slower for v1.4.x, and worse for v1.5.2. Hence by default we do not use it, and use zstd 1.5.2 again in this release. Ref: https://github.com/facebook/zstd/issues/3150
    Support more wired NIC device types of name in ocs-live-netcfg. Ref: https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Clonezilla_live/thread/6026cbd187/

    BUG FIXES:

    Do not let sudo to spawn pseudo-terminal when running a job. Otherwise ocs-live-run-menu will be run twice, and it will make the console weird. Thanks to ottokang for reporting this issue. Ref: https://groups.google.com/g/ocs-clonezilla/c/tB93Vjz9CVw
    Replace buggy /usr/share/terminfo/j/jfbterm from ncurses-term. Thanks to ottokang for reporting this issue.

he underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2023/Nov/02).
Support an extra dir "root" for the root fs with grub reinstallation. This is for the case that Fedora >= 38 uses an extra dir "root" for root file system, i.e., /root/ under the root partition. Older system just puts the dirs (boot, usr, var, lib) in the / of root file system. Thanks to Bob Bobsled for reporting this issue.
