Hi, When I try that command, I am getting an error. It says: open logfile /var/log/partclone.log error I am using: partclone.dd -b -s /dev/sda -o /dev/sdc. I cannot open the log file either. Any ideas? I have source as SDA & destination as SDC (secondary master).

For disk to disk, you can: partclone.dd -b -s /dev/sda -o /dev/sdb Steven.
