Clonezilla question


I used the Clonezilla live CD to create an image of a hard drive. If anyone is curious it worked great!

Now I'd like to pull a few files out of the Clonezilla image but I'd prefer not to have to restore the entire image to do it.

I know that with straight ISOs it is possible to open the image and extract individual files that you want. Is it possible to do this with the Clonezilla image and if so does anyone know how?

Clonezilla is based on partimage, ntfsclone or dd. Unless the image is saved by dd, otherwise it can not be mounted. This is because of the limitation in partimage and ntfsclone. Therefore most of the case you can not mount the image and extract or modify the files.
