41 |
|
If your usb device is more than 400MB in size, the above command will |
42 |
|
leave the remaining space unused. To verify it, execute the command: |
43 |
|
|
44 |
|
fdisk -l /dev/sdc |
45 |
|
|

|
You should get something similar to this: |

If you don't use the i486 version of Clonezilla-SysRescCD and your |
1502 |
|
processor contains multiple cores and/or supports Hyper-Threading, parallel |
1503 |
|
gzip, bzip2, xz and lzip compression methods are also available. Parallel |
1504 |
|
compression means that each processor core compresses a different part of the |
1505 |
|
image at a time. Without parallel compression one core compresses everything. |
1506 |
|
|
1507 |
|
The speed impact caused by parallel compression depends on the number |
1508 |
|
of processor cores available. In addition, Hyper-Threading increases the |
1509 |
|
speed by about 30 % if parallel compression is used. For example, if your |
1510 |
|
processor contains four cores and supports Hyper-Threading, speed with |
1511 |
|
parallel compression is nearly 5,2 times as high as without. However, |
1512 |
|
parallel compression is currently an experimental feature. |
