**** This release of Clonezilla live (2.2.1-25) includes major enhancements and bug fixes. **** *** ENHANCEMENTS and CHANGES *** * The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2014/Jan/13). * Linux kernel was updated to 3.12.6-2. * Partclone was updated to 0.2.69.drbl1. Bugs about reiser4 and btrfs have been fixed. * Syslinux was updated to 6.03-pre1. This should fix a boot issue on some BIOS machine, e.g. Acer Aspire One. * Package drbl was updated to 2.7.18-drbl1, and clonezilla was updated to 3.9.10-drbl1. * The output of blkid will be saved in the image dir as blkid.list. * Packages bcache-tools and chntpw were added. * Package pixz was added, and is used for parallel xz compression/ decompression. * A mechanism to convert image compression format was added. It can be used to convert the gz compression to xz compression, for example. * Language files, it_IT, fr_FR, de_DE, andja_JP.UTF-8 were updated. Thanks to Gianfranco Gentili, Jean-Francois Nifenecker, Michael Vinzenz, and Akira YOSHIYAMA. * The code for restoring MBRs was extracted as a single program, ocs- restore-mbr, allowing it to be used more easily. * The install_grub_hd function in ocs-functions was extracted as a program "ocs-install-grub" so that it's easier to be run separately. *** BUG FIXES *** * A bug where live-config failed to show eject info when rebooting or halting in upstart environments was fixed. * Because the "ip=frommedia" boot parameter made Ubuntu-based Clonezilla live's vmlinuz boot slowly, it was replaced with "ip=", which is accepted by live-boot with same function and is shorter. * When creating a recovery zip file, if an image is included it is not compressed. * When a recovery ISO/zip file is created, Clonezilla now honors the original splash mechanism.
