    Hi people,

    i am cloning 1000+ machine with clonezilla.
    22 machines at the time.
    Sometimes a machine hangs on this message:
    lzop: invalid argument: (stdin)

    The other machines continue running to run normally.
    When we start a new session, the machine wich had a problem will work... (problem gone)
    Any ideas what went wrong in the first run??

    Best regards

      Some mentioned such a problem before, and most of the cases are because of the network quality. I would suggest that:
      1. check the network quality
      2. use gzip instead of lzop

      BTW, we are really interested in how long will it take to clone 1000 machines totally ?
      Good luck.

      Hi Steven,

      Right now were doing about 440 machines a day. 1 batch (22 machine)
      it takes about 20 minutes to pick up and get the computer wired-up.
      Staging it and put it away again.

      We run about 20 batches of 22 machines.

        Cool!
        Just curious, before you started to use clonezilla, which imaging tool did you use ?
        Does clonezilla save you a lot of time or just because it's free ?
        Thanks in advance.
