release of a Linux distribution , designed for quick disk cloning (only used blocks are copied). Tasks performed by the distribution are similar to the proprietary product Norton Ghost. Size distribution — 260 MB (i686, amd64).
The distribution is based on Debian GNU/Linux and utilizes code from projects such as DRBL, Partition Image, ntfsclone, partclone, and udpcast. Booting is possible from CD/DVD, USB Flash, and over the network (PXE). LVM2 and file systems ext2, ext3, ext4, reiserfs, xfs, jfs, FAT, NTFS, HFS+ (macOS), UFS, minix, and VMFS (VMware ESX) are supported. There is a mass cloning mode over the network, including traffic transmission in multicast mode, allowing the cloning of a source disk to many client machines simultaneously. Cloning can be done from one disk to another, or creating backups by saving disk images to a file. Cloning can be performed at the level of entire disks or individual partitions.
In the new version:
- Synchronized with the Debian Sid package repository as of April 20.
- The Linux kernel has been updated to version 4.19.28. Updated application versions, including partclone 0.3.12+git00e0212 and ezio-static 1.1.8.

AMD64. - The package includes utilities for initializing the graphics card and for temperature monitoring.
- Added to initramfs for network adapters with USB interface.
- A new feature has been added to Clonezilla Lite Server for mass disk cloning with distribution of disk images via BitTorrent.
- Options ezio_leecher_opt and ezio_common_opt have been added to drbl-ocs.conf;
- In the disk cloning script , support for the utility has been added as an alternative to netcat (enabled with the "-u" option). An expert mode dialog has been added to select the algorithm for compressing transmitted data.
