In their own words

doClone

doClone is a free GNU/Linux program for creating and restoring disk or partition images, including transfers between computers on a local network. It can image the system it is running on, clone disks or partitions of different sizes, and preserve filesystem UUIDs and labels. When restoring to a differently sized disk, it can resize partitions proportionally; a smaller target works only if the stored data fits, otherwise restoration returns an error. Full-disk images include the boot sector, and doClone can restore GRUB and its options on the receiving machine. Network transfers can use Unicast/Multicast or Chain Mode, which moves data through a chain of computers. The program supports 12 filesystems, including ext2, ext3, ext4, FAT16, FAT32, HFS, HFS+, JFS, Linux swap, NTFS, ReiserFS, and XFS, plus nine disk labels. Local use is limited to creating images and restoring existing ones. The project describes managing GNU/Linux installations in offices or schools, including computers with different hardware. It has so far been compiled only for GNU/Linux. The listed latest version is 0.8.0; dependencies include libparted 3.2 or later and several other libraries. It is distributed under the GNU GPL v3 License.
