    Hello,
    I have 10 computers with W7 for a association of homework help for children.
    Every computer has the following features:
    -partition primary (ntfs) sda1 - W7
    -partition logic sda2
    --- Ntfs partition sda5 (for data)
    --- Fat32 partition sda6
    --- Ext3 partition sda7

    Clonezilla (under sda6/cl/) is installed on sda6, sda7 used to store the backup file img clonezilla
    Grub launches the computer

    here is my grub file

    default 0
    splashimage=/xxxx.xpm.gz
    timeout = 2
    password xxxxx

    hiddenmenu

    WINDOWS 7
    title=Windows 7
    rootnoverify (hd0,0)
    chainloader +1

    CLONEZILLA Mode manuel
    title Restauration-Sauvegarde manuelle
    lock
    root (hd0,5)
    kernel /cl/live-hd/vmlinuz boot=live live-config noswap nolocales edd=on nomodeset ocs_live_run="ocs-live-general" ocs_live_extra_param="" keyboard-layouts="fr" ocs_live_batch="no" locales="fr_FR.UTF-8" vga=791 ip=frommedia nosplash live-media-path=/cl/live-hd bootfrom=/dev/sda6 toram=filesystem.squashfs
    initrd /cl/live-hd/initrd.img
    boot

    CLONEZILLA mode auto
    title Sauvegarde c automatique (sda1)
    lock
    root (hd0,5)
    kernel /cl/live-hd/vmlinuz boot=live live-config noswap nolocales edd=on nomodeset ocs_live_run="ocs-live-general" ocs_live_extra_param="" keyboard-layouts="NONE" ocs_live_batch="yes" locales="en_US.UTF-8" vga=791 ip=frommedia nosplash live-media-path=/cl/live-hd bootfrom=/dev/sda6 toram=filesystem.squashfs
    ocs_prerun="mount -t auto /dev/sda7 /mnt" ocs_prerun1="mount --bind /mnt /home/partimage" ocs-live-run="ocs-sr -q2 -j2 -rm-win-swap-hib -z1p -i 4096 -p true saveparts disque-c-img sda1"
    initrd /cl/live-hd/initrd.img
    boot

    Setting for launch in French clonezilla are correct (for title restauration-sauvegarde manuelle in grub)?

    for automatic backup sda1 [title Sauvegarde c automatique (sda1) in grub], the command to mount sda7 as /home /partimage is correct?

    I am not a specialist in linux and I don't speak English very well so your help would be valuable to me.
    Thank you in advance and good day

    Hello

    I think the good settings for a french gui are keyboard-layouts="fr-latin9" and for mounting sda7 => ocs_prerun="mount /dev/sda7 /home/partimag/" . I replace ocs_prerun1 by ocs_prerun1="rm -rf /home/partimag/disque-c-img". Like this clonezilla delete a old disque-c-img before create a new backup disque-c-img

    Do you think is correct?

    Thank you

    For keyboard layout, from
    http://live.debian.net/manual/3.x/html/live-manual.en.html#customizing-locale-and-language
    you can use:
    keyboard-layouts=fr
    But if keyboard-layouts="fr-latin9" works better, definitely you can use that.
    For the rest it looks OK.
    Do you have any problem to run that?

    Steven.
