[debian-knoppix] Partition Image 0.7.1 (unstable) released
In the last days Partition Image 0.7.1 (unstable) was released.
Actually Knoppix contains version 0.6.2.
Klaus, will you update to 0.7.1 or do you prefer to still include
the last stable version 0.6.2?
The next versions of PartImage will be very interesting, because the
will include PartGui, a graphical interface for manipulating partitions
(resizing etc. - see above message)

Betreff: [Partimage-announce] Partition Image 0.7.1 (unstable) released
January 26, 2003.
A new delevelopement version of partimage has been released: the 0.7.1
version. It contains a lot of new features of the next major release (0.8)
This is an UNSTABLE release. It works in general cases, but there are bugs.
Then it's dangerous to use this version if you haven't maid a backup of your
data with a stable version.
The last stable version is 0.6.2.
This version uses a new image file format, then it's not compatible with any
previous version. It will change again during the 0.7.x developpement.

NEW FEATURES: The main changes between 0.6.2 and 0.7.1:
----------
- add new LZO compression: a little less efficient than gzip but a lot
faster
- partimage is now based on 2 executables: pi-core and piguicnewt.
RUNNING
----------
On single machine you may run partimage script. You can also start picore
then piguicnewt in other console.
If want to try Partimage between two machines, you need to run picore on
first machine then piguicnewt with -I 'addr' on the other machine. Where
'addr' is IP address of first machine. For now, no DNS lookup is done.
In all cases, picore must be run first.
REGRESSIONS
----------
- partimaged removed. Will be back in 0.10.0 if needed.
- picore works like dd. Free blocks will be backup as used blocks.
ROADMAP
----------
- 0.7.2 import PartGUI
- 0.7.3 support gcc-3.2 and abort dd-like method
