DESCRIPTION
       partclone.[fstype] is a part of Partclone project. 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 and EXFAT(for Windows), HFS plus(APPLE
       MAC OS), UFS2(FreeBSD), VMFS(VMWare Vsphere) and MINIX(MINIX3).

       All partclone utils could be run like partclone.[fstype] is very
       smiliar fsck or mkfs. For example, for backup/restore hfsplus, just run
       partclone.hfsp
