Hi All:
I like Clonezilla! Clonezilla is so good it even tells me when it doesn't work, now that is very good! I've used Clonezilla often and it works GREAT.
I posted a similar but not identical thread on the clonezilla forum. I'm looking for different options with this thread.
Clonezilla didn't work this time and it did tell me it didn't work. I like that, that is a great piece of software that tells you it failed. But I still need a backup.
The Question: How can I make a backup of my USB 32Gig thumbdrive? I tried, clonezilla fails. Details:
Sandisk Cruzer 32Gig USB2 about a year or so old has two partitions.
I used Lili (
http://www.linuxliveusb.com ) to create a live session of Mint16 Cinnamon (FAT32) in partition 1. I followed Lili directions to make a BIG persistent partition (
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-...per-partition/ ) so I followed the directions and the 27Gig EXT2 partition works GREAT!
Problem: Clonezilla live beginner mode won't back it up. It says it failed backing up the persistent EXT2 second partition. I want to be ready in case of a USB crash to be able to re-create this USB thumbdrive easily and have the data backed up too.
What will backup this USB flash thumb drive so I can restore it if I have to? I want to be able to restore it in case the USB crashes.
I'm a clonezilla novice, linux power user, not programmer.
Thanks! - Mike Colley
