                         [[-dX | --debug=X] [--restore_raw_file] [-z | --buffer_size] [-N | --ncurses] [-q | --quiet] [-f | --UI-fresh] [-F | --force] [-I | --ignore_fschk] [--ignore_crc] [-X | --dialog] [-C | --nocheck] [-R | --rescue] [-L | --logfile] logfile]

DESCRIPTION

       partclone.restore is a part of Partclone project to restore all image made from
       partclone.[fstype] or partclone.dd. Partclone provide utilities to backup used blocks and
       design for higher compatibility of the file system by using existing library, e.g.
       e2fslibs is used to read the used block of ext2 partition.

       Partclone supported file system include btrfs, ext2, ext3, ext4, reiserfs, reiser4, xfs
       and jfs for LINUX. Also support some non-linux operation system, ex: NTFS, FAT, EXFAT(for
       Windows), HFS plus(APPLE MAC OS), UFS2(FreeBSD), VMFS(VMWare Vsphere). All partclone utils
       could be run like partclone.xxx is very smiliar fsck or mkfs. For example, for
       backup/restore hfsplus, just run partclone.hfsp.
