    Hello all,

    I need some help here.
    I created full disk backup to image using clonezilla-live-20140630-trusty-amd64.
    (500GB HDD, 2 partition, it used 234 GB space with windows 8.1 LENOVO OEM OS and data in it, others are free space)

    Everything seems good; backup complete and verifying image if restore-able also success. I choose home dir to my external hard drive (Seagate Expansion drive USB 3.0 ; 500GB) at top directory of it, and I choose beginner mode to backup. (I always use beginner mode to backup, and it never fails me)

    When it all done, I plugged in my hard drive into another computer with windows 7, then I see something weird. I can't find my clonezilla backup image folder there. But my free space in my external hard drive is decreased (My external hard drive almost full after that image backup).
    I try to open that external Hard drive with ubuntu 14.04, and ubuntu also can't see my clonezilla file there. Then I rebooted into clonezilla again and after select my hard drive as home dir, I can't find menu to restore, this mean clonezilla can't see any backup image I created there!

    How is this happened? How can I delete that file? My external Hard drive is almost full, and I don't have any free space to backup other files on my hard drive (I don't want to format it).

    Please Help me.

    This is weird. Are you sure the file system integrity is OK? Try to do a file system check by "fsck" on GNU/Linux or "chkdsk" if it's ntfs or VFAT on MS Windows.

    Steven.
