Redo Rescue, formerly Redo Backup and Recovery, is a free backup and disaster recovery software. It runs from a live CD, a bootable Linux CD image, features a GUI that is a front end to the Partclone command line utility, and is capable of bare-metal backup and recovery of disk partitions. It can use external hard drives and network shares.

After a long period of inactivity since 2012, the project has been resumed in 2020 adopting a shorter name: Redo Rescue.[1]

In addition to backup software, the disk includes additional supporting programs such as:

Rescuezilla

In 2019, while the project was inactive, it was forked[2] and many long-standing bugs were fixed,[3] to create Rescuezilla[4] based on Debian, later based on Ubuntu.[5][6][7][8] Rescuezilla 2.5 is described as Clonezilla with a GUI.[9]
