'''Disk Cloning'''
 
[[Clonezilla]] (packaged with DRBL) uses [[partimage]] to avoid copying free space, and [[gzip]] to compress Hard Disk images. The stored image can then be restored to multiple machines simultaneously using [[Multicast]] packets, thus greatly reducing the time it takes to image large numbers of computers. The DRBL Live CD allows you to do all of this without actually installing anything on any of the machines, by simply booting one machine (the server) from the CD, and [[Preboot Execution Environment|PXE]] booting the rest of the machines.
