This release of Clonezilla live (20250504-plucky) includes major enhancements and bug fixes.
ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES from 20250303-oracular
- The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Ubuntu Plucky Puffin (25.04) repository (as of 2025/May/04).
- Linux kernel was updated to 6.14.0-15.15.
- Partclone was updated to 0.3.36.
- Added packages libfsapfs-utils, usb-modeswitch and fscrypt in Clonezilla live system.
- Added new program ocs-find-live-key & updated ocs-put-log-usb so that it can copy the log files even when Clonezilla live USB drive is used in "To RAM" mode. It will find the USB key that: (1) is vFAT file system and (2) contains the file "Clonezilla-Live-Version", then it will be treated as Clonezilla live USB drive.
- ocs-live-repository: added dev=///OCS_LIVE_USB so that the Clonezilla live USB drive can be assigned as the image repo, especially when Clonezilla live USB drive is booted in "To RAM" mode. The Clonezilla live USB drive has to be vFAT file system since it's used to boot in both uEFI and MBR mode. Hence it is not a good choice for image repo since vFAT file system has many restrictions. Better to use UUID or LABEL to assign the image repo.
- Improved the saving dialog menu and prompt.
- Added a mechanism to mitigate the random order of block devices. It can be enabled by adding the boot parameter "ocs_1_cpu_udev", i.e., when udev is started in initramfs, only 1 CPU is online. After that, all CPUs will be enabled.
- drbl-ocs.conf: enabled btrfs support in drbl-ocs.conf since Partclone has been updated to 0.3.36 which supports btrfs v6.13.
BUG FIXES
- Disabled devices list cache mechanism since blkid is run too many times that makes program run slowly.
