    Hello,

    I have a simple question.
    Is it possible, for example to save partition hda1 and restore it on another station in partition hda6 ?

    Thanks a lot for your answers

      Yes. However, please pay attention to the partition table creation. By default, Clonezilla will create that for you. You can choose to disable that. If so, you have to make sure the partition table in the target disk already exists and the size of hda6 fits hda1.

      Concerning partition table and size, it's OK.
      My question is about how can I specify that clonezilla has to restore to hda6 and not hda1. I made a test and it seems that it takes by default the same partition name. Isn't it ?

      Thanks for you help

        Sorry, I did not explain it very clearly. If you use Clonezilla live (http://opensource.nchc.org.tw/clonezilla-live/testing/clonezilla-live-1.0.3-15.iso)
        You can do a partition to partition clone, i.e. hda1 to hda6 clone.
        If you mean to use Clonezilla in DRBL, then you have to rename the image. For example, rename the /home/partimag/$IMAGE/hda1.xxx to /home/partimag/$IMAGE/hda6.xxx... Then use dcs to start the clone.
