The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Ubuntu Natty repository (as of 2011/May/30).
Partclone was updated to 0.2.23.
Syslinux was updated to 4.04.
Initrd and filesystem.squashfs were compressed with XZ, and this makes Clonezilla live iso/zip file smaller by ~38 MB.
The pre-run and post-run commands were moved to the login shell instead of init so now it can be interactive, .e.g. sshfs mounting with password input.
The grub2 boot loader for EFI was added. This is a testing function for booting a Mac machine from an USB device with GPT partition.
The "gPXE" in the boot menu is replaced by "iPXE".
//NOTE// From Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24, if you manage the boot parameters by yourself, you have to put the extra boot parameter "config" or "live-config" to make live-config to work.
//NOTE// From Clonezilla live 1.2.6-24, due to the change in Live-boot, the boot parameter to assign static IP address has been changed. The new format is:
ip=**[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NETMASK]:[HOSTNAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF] [,[CLIENT_IP]:[SERVER_IP]:[GATEWAY_IP]:[NETMASK]:[HOSTNAME]:[DEVICE]:[AUTOCONF]]***::
e.g.
ip=10.0.0.1::10.0.0.254:255.255.255.0::eth0,:::::eth1:dhcp

Typos fixed.
A workaround to avoid the sshfs "Read: connection reset by peer" or "remote host has disconnected" issues.
The syslinux and isolinux files were missing, which caused recovery-iso-zip menu to fail. This has been fixed.
