Hey folks, I wanted to share this tool I recently came across, called Rescuezilla - not seen it mentioned a lot here on Lemmy. It’s a neat little tool worth keeping on an usb-stick.
What is Rescuezilla?
Rescuezilla is a backup/recovery solution. It’s a Clonezilla GUI that’s fast, feature-packed and very easy-to-use, even for everyday computer users.
Main features:
- Disk Imaging: Easily create full images of your hard drives or partitions for backup or migration.
- Restoration: Quickly restore disk images to the original drive or a different one, making recovery a breeze.
- Cross-Platform Support: Works with various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS.
- Live Environment: Runs from a live USB or CD, so you can back up or restore your system without booting into your installed OS.
- File System Support: Compatible with multiple file systems, making it versatile for different storage devices.

Insane take. The terminal is not for everyone or every task. I’m happy to use it for a lot of things but for example, I’m so happy gparted exists and I don’t have to do partitioning in a CLI
While you can do command line stuff with CloneZilla, I think what they’re referring to is the TEXT-based guided user interface, which doesn’t seem to differ much at all to the Rescuezilla GUI, which only looks marginally prettier. However, there’s a few other useful tools in there, and a desktop environments, so it’s still a bit nicer to use.
