How do I make a clone using images?

I succeded to download an image of my linode to my local machine which is home/iosef/linode.img. I want to use this same image to create a new linode which should be an exact clone of the first one. How do I do that?

Since you already have your image downloaded locally, all you would need to do is upload the image to the Cloud Manager:

Then deploy that image to a new compute instance:

Hope that helps!

Hi Micah, thank you for your answer

Is any way to do it using built in Linux commands?
