Title:
"Not enough memory" error when trying to work with large images with
partclone
Status in partclone package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in partclone source package in Xenial:
New
Bug description:
Partclone is capable of working with images that're fragmented into
tiny bits, and then reconstructing them and cloning partitions.
However, with extremely large disks, the version of partclone in
Xenial has a major flaw: it wants you to have memory equal to the
'disk size'.
This means that it can't work properly with creating a raw image file
from fragmented disk bits.
This is fixed in later releases, and Bionic and up have 0.3.11 which
includes a large number of memory improvements which gets rid of these
'not enough memory' problems.
This supposedly is also fixed in 0.2.89 per my looking online.
Note that because of this bug, partclone in Xenial is unusable for
restoring files or creating raw images from segmented images (such as
that which Clonezilla takes) when trying to reconstruct the partition
image. (Because of this, I am setting "Medium" as the bug
importance).
Bionic and later are not affected.
