#433 Unable to find target partition nvme0n1p1

[Stéphane Ascoët]

Hi, I must move the three first partitions of a laptop SSD to a new, larger, one. I successfully made images of them, but when restoring to the new one, even with "-k" option, I get "Unabe to find target partition "nvme01n1p1""
The nvme01 is correctly seen by Clonezilla

Please take some photos about the error messages on the screen then share them. It's easy for us to debug.
Thanks.

I can't take photos. Clonezilla finally cloned the p1 after having created it as an empty one on the destination with cfdisk before. I've read absolutely everywhere that this was managed by Clonezilla...
Another little glitch: I've tried only with the p1 by now, so only checked this one in the dialog, accepted partition integrity check after that, and it checked the three ones however...

So maybe you can provide the file /var/log/clonezilla.log next time. It will be easier for us to find some clues.

I also have the same issue, trying to clone from a 512Gb nvme to a 1TB nvme, the 512 Gb has an ext4 popos / btrfs cachyos and fat efi

[Steven Shiau]

Thanks for your feedback. Which version of Clonezilla live did you use?
Please also provide the file /var/log/clonezilla.log next time. It will be easier for us to find some clues.

I encountered the same issue when using both the stable version 3.3.0-33 and the alternative stable version 20251017. The error occurs when selecting the -k1 option for the partition table, but does not occur when using the -k option.

[Steven Shiau]

Maybe you can give testing Clonezilla live a try? e.g.., >= 3.3.1-27 or 20260115-*:
https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php
There were many changes and improvements during the past 3-4 months.

I tried 3.3.1-27 . The error occurs when selecting the -k1 option for the partition table,

Could you please give testing Clonezilla live a try? i.e., >= 3.3.1-29 or 20260202-*:

I think the problem is that my HP Envy has Intel RST active and I can not remove it. I have scoured google to find a solution but to no avail. Even HP refuses to say how to deactivate it. Does anyone have any ideas? My new Nvme drive will not show up in gparted or any other system I boot up with a thumb drive.

[Stéphane Ascoët]

This isn't the same behavior than in the original bug, please fill in another one

PS this also applies to clonezilla and rescuzilla.
