cannot restore #11
Comments
The filename is used to indicate the partclone binary name & decompression used in restoring.
So the bits after If clones images have been renamed, they can be renamed back again to fix them. You could also manually decompress & use partclone directly to restore. |
Thanks Alex, is it possible to create a mechanism for descriptions (like
separate file)?

{name}-{timestamp}.apt.{partclone_variant}.{z_name}
So the bits after apt shouldn't be changed.

I suppose if you wanted to keep the renames you could keep symbolic links to those renamed files that had correct naming. |
thanks, seems too complicated for daily use.

Yes I agree. But the simple solution is, not manually renaming the clones to begin with. Can you help me understand why this is necessary? |
sure, thanks for asking.
when doing normal backup of windows 10 disk I need to backup efi boot
partition, OS partition and recovery partition.
since I cannot do it in one batch I am doing it one by one and renaming
them accordingly, stating type, size and contents (for OS, like clean
install, build 20H2, office and Nvidia drivers). Another concern of mine is
that if I will restore it to an empty disk I need to know what partition
size I should create before restoring.
BTW I am enjoying your program very much! It is very clean and simple to
use while fast and reliable, currently trying to integrate your great app
into custom gparted live iso. Unfortunately it is not in repository, so
need to figure out how to do it properly.
Thanks a lot for you support and prompt responses!

Thanks for the details. Maybe you could click "clone" for each and give it a name that way, rather than rerunning the clone. Or if you do rename, change just the stuff before Regarding the custom iso, there is rpm & deb prebuilt packages included with each release https://github.com/alexheretic/apart-gtk/releases/tag/v0.24 & it's also available in AUR. |
Thank you very much, still think storing description file would be a nice touch, however it is a lot of work to implement... |
POP Linux
Mapped NTFS source disk (local)
after selecting image file getting following error in terminal:
ERROR apart_core::server] RestoreJob creation failed: /usr/sbin/partclone.ntfs.81.4GiB not found
Probable cause: file was renamed manually
Without renaming restore works fine
