Rescuezilla is fully compatible with Clonezilla images and supports additional formats including VirtualBox (VDI), VMWare (VMDK), Hyper-V (VHDx), Qemu (QCOW2), and many more. It features an Image Explorer for accessing files within images, supports advanced environments like Linux md RAID and LVM, and provides both imaging and cloning (device-to-device) modes. Built as a bootable GNU/Linux distribution, it can restore systems even when the original OS cannot boot.
