Version: stable - 3.0.2-21
These are the steps being followed:
1-Boot clonezilla from USB ISO
2-Enter to root shell,
3-Mount destination drive (mount /dev/sde1 /mnt/)
4-Create clonezilla destination (mkdir /mnt/clonezilla)
I want to use that folder to save clonezilla backups
5-Launch sudo clonezilla
6-Choose device-image
Last option Skip "Use existing /home/partimag (Memory! NOT RECOMMENDED)
Does not allow me to choose another existing directory or mount point in the filesystem (/mnt/clonezilla). It could either have a dialog to enter custom existing directory or cherry pick from filesystem desired directory.
This is the improvement I request, since according to UI I must use the whole drive (/dev/sde) or (/dev/sde1) as source or destination.

I know that I can edit /etc/drbl/drbl.conf and set ocsroot="/mnt/clonezilla" but that's not something intuitive and also not mentioned in ncurses UI.
You can try to use ocs_prerun or ocs_repository in the boot parameter to assign that. For more info, please check:
