Partclone – A Versatile Free Software for Partition Imaging and Cloning
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
**[Partclone][1]** is a free and open-source tool for creating and cloning partition images brought to you by the developers of **Clonezilla**. In fact, **Partclone** is one of the tools that **Clonezilla** is based on.
|
||
|
||
It provides users with the tools required to backup and restores used partition blocks along with high compatibility with several file systems thanks to its ability to use existing libraries like **e2fslibs** to read and write partitions e.g. **ext2**.
|
||
|
||
Its best stronghold is the variety of formats it supports including ext2, ext3, ext4, hfs+, reiserfs, reiser4, btrfs, vmfs3, vmfs5, xfs, jfs, ufs, ntfs, fat(12/16/32), exfat, f2fs, and nilfs.

It also has a plethora of available programs including **partclone.ext2** (ext3 & ext4), partclone.ntfs, partclone.exfat, partclone.hfsp, and partclone.vmfs (v3 and v5), among others.
