A tiny backup script using CloneZilla Live 2.1.2.-43. The output directory is named dynamically (YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS-img-...) and created under /home/partimag by ocs-sr. The first three partitions are backed up (sda1, sda2, and sda3).

Info.md

Steps

  • Boot from Clonezilla Live CD
  • Select "Clonezilla live" (default entry in boot menu)
  • Choose keyboard language
  • Select "Enter shell"
  • Choose "cmd" mode
  • If the script resides on /dev/sdb1, then "mount /dev/sdb1 /home/partimag" now (the mount inside the script will fail, but that doesn't matter)
  • Run script ("sudo ...")
