Well i downloaded, and booted up the ubuntu based clonezilla, and encountered a totally new problem. It refuses, every time to connect to the samba server, complaining about "cannot allocate memory" and "unexpected lookup error -12". While I did encounter this problem using the other versions of clonezilla, increasing the IRPStackSize on the server machine made it work. With the new version of...

Alright the results are in. When saving image using an older machine, the image saves OK to the samba server. I saved the image twice using two different (older) client machines. The image saved fine in both cases. Therefore, the problem should not be the network, or the server machine. The problem has to do with some problem with clonezilla, and the newer chipset. I will download instead, the...

Oddly, Whenever I tried cloning using the old version of clonezilla, it reports that the NTFS filesystem is corrupt. Every time. I tried it on 5 different machines, and happens regardless of whether i save to samba, or local device. This doesnt make sense, since this is the version of clonezilla I have been using for years! I guess microsoft changed NTFS recently? The newer version of clonezilla...

What I can't wrap my head around is why its ALWAYS the first part of the image (.AA) and never any other part. Consistently, ONLY the first chunk fails checksum, while all other parts... ALWAYS pass. How could this be a random network problem? Its too consistent. In any case, I am trying saving images using various combinations of machines and clonezilla versions. (The newest stable clonezilla...

Unfortunately, I can't change the wiring of the network. I did however run a full RAM test on both the client machine, and the server. There were no problems. Sucks... bad RAM would have explained everything. Anything else it could be? Sometimes I get other random behaviors, like the kernel suddenly dropping connection, and reporting a billion errors "eth0: link down". It just wont...

Well I imaged a computer three times in a row, and each time saving to a samba server share. When i attempt to restore the image, the md5 checksum fails, on the first part of the image (the first .AA file) I went to the samba server, and installed md5summer, and manually checked the checksums in a windows environment, and sure enough, they all check out, except the first .AA file. This was...

I am having a simalar problem. I have created an image three times, and each time i go to restore it, i get a hash check failure. I created the image with the options to create MD5, and SHA checksums. The md5 checksum fails every time, on the same file too. the IMAGENAME.aa file. The sha checksum usually passes. If i force it to restore the image despite check fail, sometimes partclone reports...
