apoligies for confusing you.

partedmagic can be installed to a usb stick;

partedmagic has clonezilla, all programs are listed at;

no such thing as a 'dumb question'. only 'dumb mistakes' by not asking

bad choice of word on my part. should have said "loop device";

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loop_device


after thinking about that one, 2 choices.

if michael advises against pulling g4l files out of iso image, partition
usb stick. 1 for partedmagic, 1 for g4l, 1 for clone backup.
