Partimage is a Linux utility which saves partitions having a supported filesystems (see below) to an image file. partimage是一個Linux的實用節省的分區有一個支持的文件系統（見下文）到一個圖像文件。 It is a free and open source alternative to the popular software Norton Ghost or DriveImage .這是一個自由和開放源碼的替代流行的軟件的Norton Ghost或driveimage 。 Most Linux and Windows filesystems are supported.大多數Linux和Windows文件系統的支持。 The partition image file can be compressed with the gzip / bzip2 programs to save disk space, and can be split into multiple files to easily copy them on CDs / DVDs.分割的圖像文件可以被壓縮，與gzip /的bzip2程序以節省磁盤空間，並且可以分割成多個檔案輕鬆地複製他們關於光碟/數碼影碟。 Partitions can also be saved across the network using the partimage network support, or using Samba / NFS.分區還可以節省整個網絡的使用partimage網絡支持，或使用Samba / NFS的。 If you don’t want to install Partimage or you don’t have a running Linux installation then you can download and burn如果你不想安裝partimage或您不具備運行Linux的安裝，然後你可以下載和燒傷 SystemRescue CD systemrescue裁談會 . 。 It is a live cd, like Bart’s Rescue CD, that allows to use Partimage immediately even if your computer has no operating system installed (useful to restore an image), and it also allows to save an image on a DVD on the fly.這是一個活的CD一樣，巴特的救援光盤，即允許使用partimage立即即使您的電腦沒有安裝作業系統（有用的恢復圖像） ，並且還允許以保存圖像對DVD對果蠅。

It supports Ext2FS, Ext3FS, Reiser FS, FAT16/32, HPFS, JFS, XFS, UFS and HFS.它支持ext2fs ， ext3fs ， reiser財政司司長， fat16/32 ， HPFS下， jfs ，了XFS ， ufs和居所資助計劃。 NTFS support is still experimental but works fine with not too much fragmented partitions. NTFS的支持仍是實驗，但工程的優良與不算太多零碎分割。

Partimage, like Partition Magic , will only copy data from the used portions of the partition. partimage ，像分區魔術 ，只會複製數據，從使用的部分分割。 For speed and efficiency, free blocks are not written to the image file.為速度和效率，空閒塊不會寫入圖像文件。 This is unlike the unix ‘dd’ command, which also copies empty blocks.這是不同的Unix的'副'命令，該命令的副本也空塊。 Partimage also works for large, very full partitions. partimage工程也大，十分詳盡的分區。 For example, a full 1 GB partition can be compressed with gzip down to 400MB only.舉例來說，全面為1 GB的分區可以壓縮gzip下降到只有400mb 。

Partimage can be used to easily copy full OS installation along with relevant files and data to rapidly deploy across multiple machines with identical or near identical hardware. partimage可以用來很容易複製，充分OS安裝隨著有關文件和數據的快速部署跨越多個機器具有相同或接近相同的硬件。 In Linux, based on our experience, it doesn’t matter if the hardware isn’t identical; only the hard disk size should be same and preferably from the same manufacturer.在Linux的基礎上，根據我們的經驗，不要緊，如果硬件是不相同的;只有硬碟大小應相同，而且最好是從同一製造商。 On windows it is better to have nearly identical hardware.在Windows最好是有幾乎相同的硬件。
