#clonezilla

One way to handle this problem is to make a CloneZilla image on an extra storage drive instead of doing a "disk to disk" clone.

I try to avoid "disk to disk" clones and favor "disk to image" operation, then "restore image to disk" operation to get it to the final destination.

This removes the possibility of me accidentally overwriting the wrong drive.

It take more time, as you have to transfer twice. However, then you also have a CloneZilla image of that point in time to go back to later (if needed).

Shout out for the awesome #clonezilla

Just upgraded the internal SSD in my Ubuntu laptop with a minimum of fuss.

New SSD in an external enclosure, boot from clonezilla live usb stick, copy all data from internal to external, shut down, swap SSDs, reboot, job done 😎

Ich habe mir für einen neuen Laptop jetzt mal 32 GB RAM und eine 2 TB NVMe SSD bestellt und habe mich mal umgeguckt, wie man denn eine Platte so klont, vor allem in #Linux. Videos reden von #Clonezilla oder #Foxclone. Dann ich habe mal #perplexityai gefragt und was kam heraus?

sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb status=progress

Warum nicht gleich so? Warum muss man immer alles so kompliziert machen, wenn es nicht sein muss? DD ist doch super easy.
