Clonezilla Live 3.3.2 is now available as the latest stable release of the Debian-based live system for disk imaging, cloning, backup, and recovery.
This release is based on the Debian Sid repository as of May 17, 2026, and includes Linux kernel 7.0. The imaging backend has been updated to Partclone version 0.3.47.
The main highlight is the adoption of gocryptfs for image encryption, replacing the eCryptFS-based mechanism. New gocryptfs options are now available in both the command-line and text-based interfaces, enabling encrypted image handling directly within Clonezilla’s standard tools.
To support this migration, Clonezilla Live 3.3.2 introduces ocs-cvtimg-enc, a utility that converts encrypted images from eCryptFS to gocryptfs and can also decrypt or encrypt Clonezilla images.
Storage handling has also been improved with enhanced MDRAID support, including new tools for starting, stopping, saving, restoring, and purging MDRAID layouts. Clonezilla Lite Server now supports MDRAID deployment, and stop and cleanup operations have been refined to reduce “busy” errors during restoration.
On top of that, Clonezilla Live 3.3.2 adds support for LVM thin provisioning. Thin pool data containers are now skipped during image saving, checking, or conversion, lowering the risk of errors in LVM thin setups.
Checksum handling has been updated as the live system now includes b3sum in the initrd and uses a b3sum-based mechanism instead of sha256sum for live-system checksums. For Partclone image saving and device-to-device cloning, Clonezilla now defaults to XXH128 checksum mode.
Moreover, this release includes a new menu option for verifying the boot medium. Several new packages have been added to the live system, including brightness-udev, ansifilter, thin-provisioning-tools, gocryptfs, and fido2-tools.
For improved safety, ocs-clean-disk-part-fs now runs interactively by default. Clonezilla Live 3.3.2 also prompts users to apply a bcdboot fix during 512n/e to 4Kn disk conversions in ocs-onthefly.
Bug fixes address multipath devices, Partclone TUI behavior, duplicated virtual mapped device output, MDRAID restoration, thin pool handling, device-name matching in ocs-pt-size-from-sf, and partition table checks for MDRAID devices.
