DESCRIPTION
       partclone.restore is a part of Partclone project to 
restore all image made from partclone.[fstype] or

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.
