Clonezilla Live 2.5.5-38 is now the latest stable release of the live system based on the open-source partition and disk imaging and cloning Clonezilla software. It’s synced with the software repositories of the Debian Sid operating system series and uses a recent kernel from the Linux 4.15 branch. However, one of the most interesting feature of the Clonezilla Live 2.5.5-38 release is a new massive deployment mechanism based on the BitTorrent technology. Developer Steven Shiau explains that Clonezilla now needs to convert the original disk image to the special format when using the new BitTorrent mode for mass deployments.
