I've attempted to boot and run Clonezilla on a new 13" Macbook Pro (MacbookPor13,1) using each of the four recent ISOs as the source. USB boot keys made using TuxBoot: clonezilla-live-20161121-yakkety-amd64, clonezilla-live-20170109-yakkety-amd64, clonezilla-live-20170109-zesty-amd64, and clonezilla-live-2.5.0-5-amd64 (Hail Mary, didn't expect it to work).
The boot keys work on prior versions of Macbooks, like 2014 and 2015 MBAs, and an earlier version even worked on a 2015 Macbook with a USBa-USBc adatper. This adpater is what I've tried with the new 13"MBP.
Clonezilla always hangs imediately after I select the display resolution.
Any thoughts on troubleshooting this? I'm not that fmailiar with Ubuntu, but I'fairly good at the CLI. If there's a non-graphical way to start this, watch it execute and hwere it hangs I can dig in and research. Just have no idea where to begin.
Thank you

Did you try Clonezilla live >=20170109-zesty?

Any difference?
