Thanks Steven. I was confused looking at Clonezilla source but couldn't find things in /usr/lib/live/boot, only able to find https://github.com/grml/grml-live-grml on Github. Please also consider adding a boot parameter for the loop in Select_eth_device(). I made my changes as follows, and pass ethupwait=3 ethloop=1. I'm not home so can't paste the output from /var/log/clonezilla/ but will post a reply after I get home. --- usr/lib/live/boot/9990-select-eth-device.sh 2025-03-01 04:05:57.000000000...

No, but here's how my patched initrd.img works. If all you patched was Wait_for_carrier and not Select_eth_device() the wait for link will be repeated 5 times. user@debian:/var/log/live$ cat boot.log Waiting for ethernet card(s) up... If this fails, maybe the ethernet card is not supported by the kernel 6.12.32-amd64? Looking for a connected Ethernet interface. eth0 ? eth1 ? eth2 ? eth3 ? Waiting for link to come up on eth0... 1 Link is up Connected eth0 found Waiting for link to come up on eth1......

@Ken, have you tested Clonezilla live >= 3.3.0-6 or 20250820-*? https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php We have implemented a similar mechanism to deal with that. The details are described in my previous post, i.e., https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Open_discussion/thread/579168f80f/?limit=25#c7f7 Please give it a try. Thanks.

"only clone the LVM metadata of an LVM physical volume" -> If you meant the LVM volume group configuration, you can use vgcfgbackup and vgcfgrestore: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/vgcfgbackup.8.html https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/vgcfgrestore.8.html That's what we use in Clonezilla.
-
I believe the free spaces will only contain binary zeroes.

You do not have to reformat the destination disk, you can just clone it. The destination disk will be overwritten. Pay attention to the source and destination disks. You have to very sure which one is which one. Again, backup important disk before you use Clonezilla. Just in case.

Giorgio Busatto posted a comment on discussion Help
Hi, first of all, thanks a lot for this very useful software. I have a question regarding LVM volumes. As far as I know, clonezilla uses partclone to clone known filesystems such as ext4 or xfs by copying only the used sectors. I have used partclone separately from the command line to clone and restore my filesystems. Furthermore, as far as I understand, clonezilla also supports cloning disks containing LVM volumes. My question: is there a separate tool in the clonezilla package so that I can only...

Harry E posted a comment on discussion Clonezilla live
Hello I understand that Clonezilla Partclone copies only those sectors the file system marks as containing live data. Clonezilla Partclone does not copy sectors marked as free-space. Assume a 100gb partition. 50gb is data files, 50gb is free-space. I run Clonezilla Partclone to back up the partition. I then wipe the partition such that all sectors contain binary zeroes. I then run Clonezilla restore-part to restore the 50 gb of live data back to the partition. Question: After the restore, what is...

Yes I used Clonezillla live. I downloaded the .iso file and burned it to a CD This is a desktop running Win 10 source drive is a 120GB SSD destination drive is a 500GB conventional drive. Should there be a difference is the disks are solid state or conventional? Clonezilla running from a CD no other discs present in the system. While what I did seems to mirror the steps outlined, I will try to run it again. I will also take more detailed notes of anything I do. Since the 1st attempt did not pan out,...

Multicast mechanism need good quality of network switch... Not sure if your issue is on the switch or not. However, maybe you can try bittorrent one?
-
Broadcast is worse, no clients get to start restoring the first partition, I guess it's because my switches blocks it or start to drop packets very early. With multicast it start restoring well, first 2 partitions are small, then the 3rd partition is like 400GB and restores successfully, and then it hangs starting to restore the 4th partition for most of the clients (all of them except two). I tried in the same classroom with a different set of computers (same switch) and it happened exactly the...

Did you try broadcast mechanism? Same issue?

Due to a technical issue, we suspended the development of DRBL live. Please use DRBL SE or Clonezilla lite server: https://clonezilla.org////clonezilla-SE/ If you want to full control, install a Debian Linux and use this mode: https://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-SE/use_clonezilla_live_in_drbl.php For Clonezilla lite server, you are right, cron is not included. We will think about if we should include that in the future.

You did not mention the steps you did when using Clonezilla live. Please describe that in detail, step by step. Please also take some photos about the error messages on the screen and show that to us. It's easier for us to understand. Actually I suggest you can just follow this to clone your disk: https://clonezilla.org////fine-print-live-doc.php?path=clonezilla-live/doc/03_Disk_to_disk_clone Then use GParted live (https://gparted.org) to resize the partition sizes to whatever you like. Normally...

"won't there be issues if I resize the Windows partition before Linux ? " -> Maybe. However, after you clone the disks, before you boot the machine, remember to remove the original disks from your PC. Then you can do whatever tests and modify on the cloned disks as you like. Nothing will lose since you keep the original disks. Normally you do not have to reinstall grub, and resizing with GParted live might keep the booting process OK normally. Just do it if you backup important data and keep the...

@Francois, Somehow I missed your reply on Jun/10. I thought your issue was about time out in DHCP. Yesterday I realized your issue is actually on the NIC link detection time out. As Ken mentioned, that is a fixed number (15 secs) in the live-boot: https://salsa.debian.org/live-team/live-boot/-/blob/master/components/9990-select-eth-device.sh?ref_type=heads We have patched the live-boot to have an extra boot parameter "ethdevice-link-timeout"in Clonezilla live >=3.3.0-6 or 20250820-*: https://clonezilla.org///downloads.php...

Hello, I'm using Clonezilla lite-server to restore a disk image via network into several computers, the disk image contains 4 partitions, and when I boot the clients via network they restore well some partitions, but when they arrive to the last partition some of the clients hang (it shows the image about to restore partition but no progress bar). However, some other clients (usually 2 of them, but not always the same PCs) restore everything well. So when these 2 clients finish, I see the rest are...

Thanks very much. I am sadly not as uhh... 'natively experienced' in the bash/linux environment as I am with windows, so for a neanderthal like me, my brain prefers it simple - I load into Clonezilla from my Ventoy usb, and simply press buttons on the prompts like a caveman instead of having a script/command line execution. So for now, since it's only around once a month, I'll just keep doing what I've been doing (deleting in windows before rebooting, then rebooting into CZ, then making the image...

EDIT 2: Instead of using mkinitramfs, manually create it. The main fs is compressed with xz. EDIT: I was totally wrong about what I wrote below the horizontal line below. I did some more searching and it turns out the initrd.img has more than kernel modules. It's just Ubuntu 24.04's cpio stops the list after it encounters "." within the archive. lsinitramfs shows everything, which includes /usr/lib/live/boot. Use unmkinitramfs to extract, modify, then mkinitramfs to recreate. Looks like the cpio...

No, it won't. The squashfs is loaded after the network interfaces are brought up. I don't have any experience creating live CDs and the like but there appears to be a small rootFS embedded within vmlinuz (issue "file vmlinuz" and it will state not only a boot executable but also a rootFS and swap) and that's what gets used when the kernel runs. initrd.img only has kernel modules, nothing else. I'm not familiar with how a vmlinuz gets created or if there are utilities that allow each component to...

Hi Ken, Thanks for your insight. If I change this in the code and compress it back to a squashfs, does this work? Or is there another way required to make a change for this?

Th issue: I keep getting error messages that my C: drv is full and the system can't update windows. I am using Win10. So I tried to clone the C; drove, which is a 120GB SSD to a empty 500GB conventional drive. I am attaching a map of the discs. Just looking at this you would think that it should have worked. But no. The next step was to expand the 120GB partition and create a new logical drive out of what's left. I cloned directly disk to disc instead of creating an image. I disconnected DIsk 1 and...

I found the issue. As suggested earlier, it had to do with low available space on the hard drive. I went through and found some files from supposedly deleted programs and removed them manually. Doing this I was able to successfully download the file. Thanks to everyone who helped. So I tried to clone the drive and and did not work. I will start a new thread for that HznkZ

The problem resides in /usr/lib/live/boot/9990-select-eth-device.sh. Wait_for_carrier() is responsible for looping 15 times waiting for a link for each network device. Then ~75% down the script, the "for step" loop does it 5 times. I'm not sure what the rationale is for these very conservative settings but I agree it's too long. The loops are hardcoded and not user-adjustable at runtime. A pain when I have 4 network ports where only 1 is linked up. In the past I've had 6 ports on a system. Clonezilla...

elipsa2025 posted a comment on discussion Clonezilla live
I have checked and You are right, the image was done from the another system, not live one, it was Debian 13 with Clonezilla and dependancies installed from official Debian repo. I think I was used to make it in the same way with Debian 12 earlier, but without any problems. Do You think there is some kind of packages version mismatch on the Debian 13 repo? BTW, is there any additional Debian repo for Clonezilla and dependancies witch one can define as software source? Regards!
-
Great. Thanks for sharing that. For those tools you mentioned, yes, most of them are included in Clonezilla live. Next time if you have a chance, you can just enter Clonezilla live command line prompt to do that. If some of the packages are missing, please let us know.

Alex Rosenberg posted a comment on discussion Clonezilla live
SystemRescue has some extra tools on it that were suggested to me like testdisk, ntfsfix, etc. Some of those may also be in the CZ Live image, but I switched during the patching process and didn't try the CZ environment again. I was able to mount the ESP as is, copy the files off it, reformat that partition with 512b blocks and put the files back. The NTFS partition needed to be patched to change the bytes per sector field (0x0B) and sectors per cluster (0x28) to keep 4K clusters but use 512b sectors....
-
You should be able to use "live-media-path" to assign that. For more info, please check: https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/live-boot-doc/live-boot.7.en.html#live~2
-
So maybe you can share how you use SystemRescue to do that? We might be able to implement something similar to that. Thanks.
-
How did you download Clonezilla live? Did you use a browser like firefox or chrome to open this webpage: https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php Then choose the file you want?
-
The easiest way is you clone disk to disk one by one. Then use GParted live (gparted.org) to resize your partition size. //NOTE// Backup important data before you use Clonezilla and GParted. Just in case.
-
Actually the process is saved in the image dir. You can check the file "clonezilla-img". It's a plain text file so you can use any text editor or less/more command under GNU/Linux to read its content. If you choose the put the log to Clonezilla live USB stick, Clonezilla will put the log files in the dir ocslog-*, say ocslog-20250111-1705.
-
"The solution is to have 1 pendrive only for clonezilla and other for the images? " -> Well, not really. However, by doing what I have mentioned, we can identify the issue. If you are sure the issue is from ventoy, then you can report the bug to ventoy. Actually to put Clonezilla live in the USB stick and boot it in a uEFI PC is very easy. Just need to have a FAT file system, and unzip all the files from Clonezilla live zip to that FAT partition. That's all. Hence I do not think there is any issue...
-
" extfsclone.c: FS was not cleanly unmounted" -> It showed the file system was not cleanly unmounted. Hence you have to run fsck to fix the file system. You can also choose the following option when saving the source device: -fsck-y Auto (Caution!) check and repair source file system before saving
-
Both should work. However, you have to make sure the cron service is enabled and running.
-
From the photo " IMG_20250816_161119.jpg", it seems you saved your LUKS with somehow mixed version of Clonezilla SE? We never used the partclone from Debian repo (partclone-3*-repak-1), instead we used the one in DRBL/Clonezilla repo. Maybe that's why some programs are mixed. Anyhow, it's nice to know you can successfully restored it manually.
-
I think I have managed to restore the LUKS partition in the way from the image below - however, still cannot find it out, why Clonezilla was trying to open LUKS device in a wrong way.
-
Sure, here it is.
-
So do you know which version of Clonezilla live did you use to save that image? You can find the info in the plain text file /home/partimage/2025-08-15-13-img-ROOT-FS/clonezilla-img In addition, please run: ls -l /home/partimage/2025-08-15-13-img-ROOT-FS/ and share the result. Thanks.
-
Sorry for the format, but photos seem to be the only option.
-
In that case, please share the /var/log/clonezilla.log when you test 3.3.0-3. Thanks.
-
Tried both 3.2.2-15 (stable) and 3.3.0-3 (testing).

Which version of Clonezilla live did you use? Is this issue reproducible in testing Clonezilla live? e.g., >= 3.0.3-3 or 20250802-*? https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php

Hi, I cannot restore my disk backup, when one of partitions is LUKS encrypted. I tried with the latest stable and testing release, but every time the restore process is to run "cryptsetup open", it fails, the command is like this: cryptsetup open --type luks /dev/sdb2 /home/partimage/2025-08-15-13-img-ROOT-FS/luks-crypttab-from-OS.info:root-fs and the error is: Name [...] invalid.

Hi Frankie On your new Dell PC, open the Dell BIOS UEFI configuration page and change the NVMe drive mode from Intel RST or VMD to ACHI, save and reboot. Clonezilla should now be able to use your new Dell NVMe drive and write your image. Depending on how you created your old PC image you may or may not need to turn off ACHI and turn back on RST or VMD. I don't like to use RST or VMD so I never turn it back on. This works for me, your mileage may vary. https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discuss...

Dug deeper -- neither the FAT32 partition that has the EFI content nor the NTFS partition had any adjustments to the block size in their filesystem data structures. I was able to manually patch them both from a live CD (I switched to SystemRescue). Maybe my expectations for Clonezilla were off base, but I would have expected this kind of adjustment to have been made or for giant flashing text to have told me that it was incapable of the task.

Bought a Minisforum S100. Used CZ Live to save off the factory eMMC Windows 11 install to an SSH server. I'm having no luck at restoring to a new Proxmox VM. Proxmox only seems to work reliably with 512b disk images (based on other forum posts elsewhere). I have tried a variety of options (-icds, -k1, etc.) to restore the whole disk. They always fail writing the disk label, no matter how big of a virtual disk I provide. I am able to manually use fdisk to build a partition map using the saved sda-pt.sf...

Andrew Dyer posted a comment on discussion Clonezilla live
I have an NVMe drive and I would like to clone the whole drive. The NVMe drive has 2 clonezilla partitions on it. When I try to boot Clonezilla live (3.2.2-15) from USB, it mounts one of the clonezilla partitions on the NVMe as it's root filesystem which results in the NVMe drive partition being busy and not appearing as a drive I can clone. Is there some boot option I can give Clonezilla live to force it to use it's own root filesystem on the USB stick?
-
Thanks I have no clue why it didn't work, only that it failed. I suppose that the lack of space on the HDD is a logical reason I cleared out the trash first thing. Also moved the download folder. Most of the rest of the files are located in the program file folders or the system area and moving them is risky in my mind. If I move them, and then move them back, I am worried that links will break

There is no need to remove the existing image dir.

It's only when you use TUI of Clonezilla, it will ask you to confirm if you want to remove it. I suggest you have a rotation mechanism. E.g.,...

"personalized months" -> What did you mean? Since you are able to boot the restored Ubuntu, Clonezilla actually has finished the cloning job for you. As for the screen orientation, maybe the restored Ubuntu detects different hardware so it gives you the initial settings.
