Easily replicate/clone your Linux install

Thanks for sharing.

It's unclear from reading the site : does it offer anything more than `dd` would allow, or is the added value primarily to be a ready to use interface for those less used to unix tools?

I mostly used dd in the past, but more recently I found learning e2image can save you a bunch of time copying specific linux partitions.

You're most welcome, this is laid out as a simple point & click GUI tool that anyone can burn and boot from. The author's main intent is to alleviate users from somewhat unfriendly UI of Clonezilla. I used this for ubuntu based pop-os
