Dependency sshfs is missing.
I am on ubuntu 22.04 live cd, I think other os also has this issue.
I run the following command
apt update
apt install clonezilla
sudo clonezilla

in the clonezilla UI
then I choose "disk-image"
then choose "ssh server"
clonezilla never connect to my ssh server, I notice the below error message,
it shows a command sshfs "root"@192.168.1.5:"/backup/" /home/partimag -p 22 -o noatime
clonezilla image home directory /home/partimag is not a mounting point: Failed to mount other device as /home/partimag!

then I run below command
apt install sshfs

then re-run clonezilla
this time, the ssh work.

please add/include package "sshfs" to the clonezilla dependency list.
thank you.

    Well, sshfs is not really a must. You can only say it's recommended to have that.
    Hence please report to the distribution you are using, i.e., Ubuntu Linux, or Debian, to suggest the user to install sshfs when installing the clonezilla package.

    sorry, I forgot, please also add parted to the dependency list
    as I just newly install clonezilla in proxmox, and got this error.
    /usr/sbin/ocs-get-dev-info: line 83: parted: command not found

    I have been using zfs for years, and in clonezilla, it only choose to store the image in local one drive, like ext4 drive.
    but zfs is multiple drive file system, that is why I use ssh.

    Actually I would suggest you run:
    sudo drblsrv -i
    after you run "apt install drbl clonezilla". It will detect the GNU/Linux version and put the required packages.

    the reason I suggest adding all these missing to dependency list is.
    many live iso cd including clonezilla as port of the tool kit.
    and many of those iso cd builder are just apt install clonezilla making the live cd.

    and many engineer do burn those iso to the usb or dvd.
    and sometimes, engineer plug the usb to an computer without network connection, and want to use the clonezilla inside that live cd.
    then dependency missing...

    Sure, we will update that in the files of Clonezilla. However, most of the distributions they maintain their own packaging files. Hence reporting this to the upstream will be better.
