G4L is a hard disk and partition imaging and cloning tool. The created images are optionally compressed, and they can be stored on a local hard drive or transferred to an anonymous FTP server. A drive can be cloned using the "Click'n'Clone" function. G4L supports file splitting if the local filesystem does not support writing files >2GB. The included kernel supports ATA, serial-ATA, and SCSI drives. Common network cards are supported. It is packaged as a bootable CD image with an ncurses GUI for easy use.

Changes:
The latest non-busybox programs from Fedora 8. A few unnecessary libraries have been found. ifcheck2.sh uses a dialog instead of echo for messages, and has a delay to provide process time on slower machines. Work has been done on adding an aespipe encryption option for encrypting FTP images with a GPG file and passphrase. There is an option to use sshfs to mount a remote directory and save an image via an SSH connection. busybox-1.11.2 is included. getkey.sh, a script to assist in getting the key and passphrase from USB, has been added. syslinux 3.72pre6 is included.
