I am looking for some help automating some steps in clonezilla

Anyone that has an example that is close to this or could help me with this? I have tried a few sites that have been suggested but didn't have much luck.

auto Language English

auto Don't touch keymap

auto Start clonezilla

auto device to image

auto samba server

auto eth0

auto dhcp

auto 10.100.75.1 where images are stored

auto domain blank
10.auto fill admin account
11.auto /images is directory
12.auto sercurity mode
13.auto fill admin password
14.auto beginner mode
15.user option to save disk or restore disk
16a.save disk - user enters name
16b.restore disk - user selects image

Thanks for all y'all do!

Bret

Not working?
Any error messages?
You still have to do some modifications. It won't 100% meet your need. You have to tell us what you have done, what's your configuration. Otherwise it's not easy to know what's the issue there.

Might be working but I would also like to modify the colors in the menu.

Not sure what #00000000 & #c0000090 are

Is there a color chart like for html?

Did you see it's run after booting?
Besides, did you try to manually run the ocs_prerun2 command?
Is it working?
