I've got an Asus P5K-SE motherboard with an integrated Marvell ATA controller for handling my IDE DVD drive.

When I boot the livecd, it can't seem to see the dvd drive and fails with the following error: "Can't access tty; Job control turned off"

A quick check of /dev shows that the dvd drive is not present, and no there is no module in /lib/modules for the marvell controller.

    Which clonezilla live are you using ?
    Did you try experimental clonezilla live (comes with kernel 2.6.24), too ?

    Maybe give the experimental clonezilla live a try:
    http://free.nchc.org.tw/clonezilla-live/experimental/ubuntu-based/
    It comes with newer kernel (now 2.6.26)
