#431 Backup filename containing () causes crash with unexpected token

[redbaron192]

Hi Steven,

RestoreDisk fails with unexpected token if the backup folder name contains round brackets.
See attached photo.

Once I renamed the backup to remove the brackets the restore worked.

Thanks for your feedback.
The codes about image name have been overhauled completely. Please give Clonezilla live >= 3.2.3-6 or 20250629-* a try:

Hiya,
20GB/min verify speed.... very nice indeed :o)

Some feedback on the ISO...
Using Ubuntu 22.04.5LTS, I could not get "Etcher-linux-x64-2.1.2.zip" to create a usable USB stick at all with the "clonezilla-live-3.2.3-6-amd64.iso"

In the end I switched over to my Windows 10 and used Rufus 4.6. Rufus reported that the ISO file had two ways of being put onto a USB stick, either as a ISO copy or a Direct Image. Only the ISO copy method worked.

Cheers.

On GNU/Linux, to make a USB flash stick boot on a uEFI machine, it's very easy. You actually do not have to use Ether. Just have a vFAT partition, and unzip the Clonezilla live zip file on it:

Hiya,
I've just noticed a new minor issue - Using a space character in the image folder name stops it from being listed when you do the recoverdisk process. i.e.
"2025-08-16-11-imgext4-latest" would be listed in the recoverdisk image selection dialog, whereas "2025-08-16-11-imgext4 latest" would not be.

currently using "clonezilla-live-3.2.3-6-amd64"

So far we do not accept space in the image name. Maybe in the future.
