Description:

Since 2007, Clonezilla has been the “Swiss Army Knife” for system administrators who need to clone, back up, and deploy systems — a fully open‑source alternative to proprietary ghosting tools. At this expo booth, the core maintainers will showcase the evolution of disk imaging and answer questions directly from attendees.

Highlights include:

  • Massive Deployment: Learn how Clonezilla SE (Server Edition) and Lite Server enable large‑scale cloning using Multicast and BitTorrent.
  • Next‑Gen Architecture: See a live demo of Clonezilla running on RISC‑V, supporting the latest open hardware.
  • Troubleshooting: Bring your tricky partition tables, hardware quirks, or imaging challenges — the maintainers are happy to help.

Whether you're a long‑time Clonezilla user or brand new to FOSS imaging, stop by to chat, see demos, and grab a sticker.

Target Audience:

  • Anyone interested in system imaging
  • Sysadmins
  • Users exploring open‑source deployment and rescue tools
