265    
266    <p><b>Lzma</b> method is becoming obsolete, and both <b>xz</b> and <b>lzip</b> are attempting to become its successor. They are a bit less powerful compression methods than <b>lzma</b>, but much faster. The differences between <b>xz</b> and <b>lzip</b> are virtually non-existent.</p>
267    
268    <p>If you don't use the i486 version of <b>Clonezilla-SysRescCD</b> and your processor contains multiple cores and/or supports Hyper-Threading, parallel <b>gzip</b>, <b>bzip2</b>, <b>xz</b> and <b>lzip</b> compression methods are also available. Parallel compression means that each processor core compresses a different part of the image at a time. Without parallel compression one core compresses everything.</p>
269    
270    <p>The speed impact caused by parallel compression depends on the number of processor cores available. In addition, Hyper-Threading increases the speed by about 30 % if parallel compression is used. For example, if your processor contains four cores and supports Hyper-Threading, speed with parallel compression is nearly 5,2 times as high as without. However, parallel compression is currently an experimental feature.</p>

276    <p><b>Clonezilla Live</b> warns that it is no longer safe to disable splitting because value 0 can confuse init.

396    &nbsp;&nbsp;4. You can try to boot the machine with MS Windows 9x bootable floppy, and in the DOS command prompt, run: "fdisk /mbr".<br>
397    &nbsp;&nbsp;5. You can try to boot the machine with MS Windows XP installation CD, enter recovery mode (by pressing F10 key in MS XP, for example), then in the console, run "fixmbr" to fix it. Maybe another command "fixboot" will help, too. For more info, refer to <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B314058&x=7&y=14" _target=blank>this doc</a>
398    &nbsp;&nbsp;6. Use <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/ntfsfixboot/" target=_blank>ntfsfixboot</a> to fix it. This program is included in Clonezila live and its name is partclone.ntfsfixboot, and you can use it to adjust FS geometry on NTFS partitions. By default this should be done by Clonezilla with the option -e1 and -e2 checked. If not, you can force to do that again. For more info, please run "partclone.ntfsfixboot --help" or refer to <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/ntfsfixboot/" target=_blank>http://sourceforge.net/projects/ntfsfixboot/</a>.<br>
399    &nbsp;&nbsp;7. Use ntfsreloc to adjust FS geometry on NTFS partitions. For more info, refer to <a href="http://www.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=contrib:ntfsreloc" target=_blank>http://www.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=contrib:ntfsreloc</a>. //NOTE// ntfsreloc is an older version of partclone.ntfsfixboot.<br>
