Clonezilla Live 3.2 Disk Imaging/Cloning Is Out Powered by Linux Kernel 6.11
Clonezilla Live 3.2 is here a little over three months after Clonezilla Live 3.1.3 to bump the kernel from the Linux 6.9 used in the previous version to Linux 6.11 to provide users with better hardware support. It also rebases the underlying GNU/Linux operating system on the Debian Sid repository as of October 15th, 2024.
Notable changes in this release include the merging of zstd and zstdmt compression utilities, now using zstd -T0 by default, which makes it easier for users to customize it using boot parameters. It also updates the ocs-scan-disk utility to use lsblk and to correctly show a block device with file system.
