#7 1.10 Failed to restore LVM2 part
I cloned a whole disk using CloneZilla Live 1.10. It had a small boot partition that was a ext3 primary partition, and it had a second partition that was LVM2 and contained an ext3 partition with the majority of the data. I selected the defaults through the choices and used NFS to reach my backup server.
When I tried to restore that backup, it restored the sda1 partition fine. It failed to restore the sda2 partition. From looking at the output it appears that it was trying to retrieve a file called LogVol00.conf from the backup server, and that file is no where to be found. (LogVol00 is the name of the logical volume on the sda2 partition) It repeated that error twice, once while it was trying to setup the logical volume and again when it tried to setup the physical volume. It then indicated that it had finished successfully. It didn't recognize the error and report it to me.
This appears to be a problem with the backup feature not saving a file needed by the restore procedure.

A bug about LVM was fixed in Clonezilla live 1.11 in testing branch, so please give it a try.

It looks like you fixed it in 1.11. I was able to save and restore the same disk with that.
