The general approach is to keep the GUI as simple as possible and in conformity with the Human Interface Guidelines. GParted is written in C++ and uses gtkmm as Graphical Toolkit. These optional packages will be detected at runtime and do not require a rebuild of GParted. It uses libparted to detect and manipulate devices and partition tables while several (optional) file system tools provide support for file systems not included in libparted. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, copying data residing on hard disks and mirroring one partition with another (disk imaging). It is used for creating, destroying, resizing, moving, checking and copying partitions, and the file systems on them. ￭ A single machine clone system without installation, Clonezilla live, is also available.GParted Live CD is a GNOME Partition Editor application. For unsupported filesystems, sector-to-sector copy is done by dd in Clonezilla. ￭ Unlike Ghost for Linux or Ghost for Unix, in Clonezilla, if the filesystem is supported, only used blocks in hard drives are saved and restored. ￭ Unlike ntfsclone and Partimage, which are created only for partitions, Clonezilla contains some other programs that help you save and restore not only partitions, but even a whole disk. You can also remotely use it to save or restore a bunch of computers if PXE and Wake-on-LAN are supported in your clients. ￭ Multicast is supported in PXEBoot Clonezilla, which is suitable for massively cloning. For other filesystems, Clonezilla uses dd to dump the whole partition. Therefore you can clone GNU/Linux or Microsoft Windows. ￭ Filesystems supported: ext2, ext3, reiserfs, xfs, jfs of GNU/Linux, and FAT, NTFS. Gparted-Clonezilla LiveCD was born from these popular LiveCDs (GParted and Clonezilla) to bring you more power and efficiency on your daily tasks (hard disk partitioning and cloning). Unlike Ghost for Unix/Linux LiveCDs, Clonezilla saves and restores only used blocks in the hard drives. Based on Partition Image, DRBL, ntfsclone, and udpcast, Clonezilla allows you to massively clone many computers simultaneously. Some of you already knew about the popular GParted LiveCD, a Linux-based operating system that can help you partition your hard drives, and of course about the Clonezilla LiveCD, another Linux-based mini OS that can help you clone systems.
