    hi,

    I would like to know step by sep on how to clone my Windows laptop and save the image on an external Hardrive using clonezilla please. I use Clonezilla at work but, since we have a server there, i can use ssh, and save the image onto the server. im using Clonezilla live 1.0.7-18.

    Please could someone show me how to save an image to the External hardrive.

    Thanks

      If your external hard drive is on the SSH server, reference steps is as following:

      STEP-1: Start_clonezilla
      STEP-2: device-image
      STEP-3: ssh_server
      STEP-4: ocs-live-netcfg (DHCP/Static/PPPoE...)
      STEP-5: mount sshfs - give the IP address of your SSH server
      STEP-6: enter the user account of SSH server
      STEP-7: enter existing folder for storing images
      (default is /home/partimag , it should be exist on your SSH server)

      If your external hard drive is attached via USB, reference steps is as following:

      STEP-1: Start_clonezilla
      STEP-2: device-image
      STEP-3: enter_shell
      STEP-4: $ mount /dev/sda1 /home/partimag
      STEP-5: $ exit
      STEP-6: savedisk

        For 2nd case, maybe it's easier to use:
        STEP-1: Start_clonezilla
        STEP-2: device-image
        STEP-3: Choose local_dev, then make sure your USB stick is in sda1 or sdb1 or... then let clonezilla live mount it as /home/partimag.
        then follow the rest of steps .
