Hi all. I have created a clonezilla image and am able to restore it with no problems. However, I do get the following warning and have to hit enter to continue
"Warning! Destination disk (/dev/sda) size is 4.00 TB, which is larger than the MBR partition table entry maximum 2 TiB (~2.2 TB). You have to use GUID partition table format (GPT).
Press Enter to continue....."
How can I create an installable that will ignore this warning? I need an unattened install and this interrupts it.
It should be just a warning. You do not have to press any key to continue, isn't it? Or maybe I am wrong?

You do have to press Enter to continue unfortunately.
I tried to get around this by switching my drive to GPT before cloning it but I was unsuccessful in doing so. This issue is still present.

Sorry for the late response. I was too busy last month.
This issue was fixed and committed in git repository, and it will be used in the next testing release. Now if batch mode is enabled, it won't ask you to press enter.

Oh that's great thank you. Where can I track the status of the next release?
Please give Clonezilla live >= 2.6.1-30 or 20190509-* a try:
https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php
If you choose batch mode in the expert mode, this action won't be requested.
Please let us know the results if you test that. Thanks.
