The release of the Rescuezilla 2.3 distribution is available, designed for backup, system recovery after failures, and diagnosing various hardware issues. The distribution is built on the Ubuntu package base and continues the development of the 'Redo Backup & Rescue' project, which was discontinued in 2012. Live builds for 64-bit x86 systems (1GB) and a deb package for installation on Ubuntu are available for download.
Rescuezilla supports backing up and recovering accidentally deleted files on Linux, macOS, and Windows partitions. It automatically finds and mounts network partitions that can be used for storing backups. The graphical interface is based on the LXDE shell. The format of the created backups is fully compatible with the Clonezilla distribution. During recovery, it supports working with Clonezilla, Redo Rescue, Foxclone, and FSArchiver images.
In the new version:
- The transition to the Ubuntu 22.04 package base has been completed.
- The partclone utility has been updated to version 0.3.20.
- Support for Btrfs partitions with compression enabled has been established.
- For installing Firefox, a PPA repository supported by the Mozilla team is utilized instead of snap.
- The ability to compress images using the bzip2 utility has been provided.
- The option to set a different network port for SSH has been added.
