# File Roller
File Roller is a technology or product recorded in [[Scanned_20260730-1706|Scanned_20260730-1706]]. In the reconstruction, archivemount mounts archives through a FUSE filesystem; File Roller is GNOME's archive manager; AcetoneISO manages optical-disc images.
## Historical and Technical Context
[[Clonezilla|Clonezilla]] is a partition/disk imaging and cloning system for deployment, bare-metal backup, and recovery; Clonezilla Live serves one machine, while Clonezilla SE uses [[Diskless Remote Boot in Linux|DRBL]] and network boot for mass deployment ([Clonezilla overview](https://clonezilla.org/); [Clonezilla Live/SE](https://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live.php)). [[Partclone|Partclone]] is one of the filesystem-aware engines used in that ecosystem. [[UDisks2|UDisks2]] exposes disk-management services through D-Bus and command-line tools ([UDisks documentation](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/udisks/)). [[ArchiveMount|archivemount]] mounts archives through a FUSE filesystem; [[File Roller|File Roller]] is GNOME's archive manager; [[AcetoneISO|AcetoneISO]] manages optical-disc images. [[Cockpit|Cockpit]] provides browser-based Linux administration for storage, networking, logs, and services ([Cockpit](https://cockpit-project.org/)). “simple backup,” “welesync,” “live-clone,” and “vmdb2” require exact spelling verification before product identification.
## Role in Scanned_20260730-1706
The author is comparing **three levels of preservation**: file/archive access, filesystem-aware partition imaging, and full bare-metal/network cloning. The circled partition manager and Cockpit storage note show the goal was an operable recovery workstation, not a theoretical list.
## Notebook Evidence
- [[Scanned_20260730-1706|Scanned_20260730-1706]], PDF page 11: ISO cloning and image-mounting toolkit.
**Evidentiary status:** The page occurrence and transcription are notebook evidence. Technical identification follows the source reconstruction’s cited research. Co-occurrence does not by itself prove ownership, deployment, or a direct operational relationship.
## Relationships and Overlays
On the cited page or pages, File Roller appears with [[AcetoneISO|AcetoneISO]], [[ArchiveMount|ArchiveMount]], [[Clonezilla|Clonezilla]], [[Cockpit|Cockpit]], [[Diskless Remote Boot in Linux|DRBL]], [[Partclone|Partclone]], [[UDisks2|UDisks2]]. These are page-level or reconstruction-level relationships, not automatic claims of dependency.
## Cross-Notebook Significance
This note extends the recovery and boot-media concerns in [[Scanned_20260730-1802|Scanned_20260730-1802]], especially its Linux services, NFS, installer inventory, and bootable USB/UEFI pages. The new notebook turns those components into a reversible acquisition and recovery workflow.
## Missed Signals and Open Leads
Resolve “welesync,” “live-clone,” and “vmdb2.” They may be misspellings, package names, or remembered functions rather than exact products.
