Doesn't Clonezills use partimage and partclone?

You also forgot dd.

partclone can be way faster than DD if there’s a lot of empty space as it reads the file table and only copies what’s actually in use.

Back to Linux,

If you need to back up a partition on a drive, i suggest either using rsync or partclone.

Rsync will individually back up each file in the source path to the destination path.

Partclone will create a .img file backup of the partition.

First, run sfdisk to clone the partition table to a file:

sfdisk /dev/sdX > part_table

Then run partclone, once for each partition:

partclone.fat32 -c -d -s /dev/sdXx -o sdXx.img
partclone.ext4 -c -d -s /dev/sdXy -o sdXy.img

Yes, I can compress the image file afterwards, but I still wanted something faster for when I update the master clone. Partclone works, but only for partitions of which there are two. I wanted a complete solution for backing up/restoring both partitions + the partition table.

Clonezilla wasn't optimal, as far as I can tell it uses dd for full drive backups and in any case is designed to be run booted from an external drive which is unnecessary for my use case.

After some thinking and tinkering I found a good solution: a combination of sfdisk and partclone.
