I would like to use partclone on Linux to image an external USB-disk I have formatted with FreeBSD. I am using the Devuan GNU/Linux distribution and I have installed the
partclone package. The project's README says that the tool supports the ufs filesystem through an executable partclone.ufs. The manpage installed on my system confirms this:
ufs | ufs2 partclone.ufs
However, there is no executable partclone.ufs installed on my system. There is a file
/usr/sbin/partclone.xfs
for xfs but there is no file
/usr/sbin/partclone.ufs
Do you know if it is possible to get this tool from some other source? The documentation I have found on the partclone home page has not helped much so far.
