Allow backup of Windows Bitlocker-encrypted partitions #84

Open marcosdiez opened 1 year ago

marcosdiez commented 1 year ago

For bitlocked partitions, there should be an option for clonezilla, under the hood, to use https://github.com/Aorimn/dislocker to backup the partition removing the bitlocker encryption.

This would allow backups that are not in the raw format, which would allow compression, not to backup empty disk space, delete the swap and other fun stuff!

One could afterwards encrypt the clonezilla image to keep the data safe.

Sure. We will try to make it in the future.
