Interesting, upon removing the revodrive, the system now boots normally. It booted normally before using the clone software with the revodrive in. I searched for revodrive in these forums and found nothing, so I may just start a new thread.

When you do a disk to disk clone, once you finish the cloning, you should remove the source disk or target disk. Then you can boot the MS windows. You should not keep them coexist on the same machine.
This is nothing to do with Clonezilla. Clonezilla does clone the OS for you. The problem is on the restored OS. Especially for MS Windows, you give the OS 2 identical hard drives on the same machine. This confused your MS windows, and it is an OS which is sensitive to the hardware… Say, it might find the root file system on the destination hard drive, however, the hardware is apparently different, then MS Windows gives you BSOD.

Same issue now using clonezilla-live-1.2.9-19-amd64.iso. I'm doing a part to part, I already formatted the drive in windows 7 to 100MB System Recovery + Active, 100GB Windows and ~600GB Other all NTFS on MBR. I was cloning the 100MB Recover partition first.
I tried to use clonezilla-live-1.2.9-19-i686-pae.iso and I got a Kernel Panic, attempted to kill initd 1 so i guess its back to trying x64

We'd like to reproduce that problem. If your system does not contain any sensitive or classified data, is that possible we can remotely login to try that? If so, please contact me at <steven _at_ nchc org tw>.
Thanks in advance.

I had this exactly the same problem. My system is i7 920, and I was trying to clone WD Raptor(74gb) to WD VelociRaptor 300gb; disk to disk. Tried beginners and expert mode, etc, always stuck at Calculating bitmap.
Workaround for using the i686 version instead of AMD64 did it for me, thanks.

Here we occasionally can reproduce the problem, but it's not always reproducible… So it's very difficult for us to fix this issue. If anyone have an image which is 100% reproducible, and no classified data inside, please share that for us to debug.
Now the workaround is really to use i686 version of Clonezilla live…
Thanks.
Steven.

Tried clonezilla-live-1.2.10-7-amd64.iso and its still sitting at Calculating bitmap, tried part to part and disk to disk

Hi,
I had this exactly the same problem. My system is i7 920, and I was trying to clone WD Raptor(74gb) to WD VelociRaptor 300gb; disk to disk. Tried beginners and expert mode, etc, always stuck at Calculating bitmap.
Workaround for using the i686 version instead of AMD64 did it for me, thanks.
Same problem for me Clonzilla Live ISO 1.2.9-19. Fixed using the i686pae iso. Thanks.
IBM x306m 8849; Pentium 4 Prescott 3GHz; WD80GB Caviar Blue (IBM OEM) cloning to WD Velociraptor 600GB.
The calculation reported time remaining varying enormously from 5-18 hours with every passing second.
Here we occasionally can reproduce the problem, but it's not always reproducible… So it's very difficult for us to fix this issue. If anyone have an image which is 100% reproducible, and no classified data inside, please share that for us to debug.
Now the workaround is really to use i686 version of Clonezilla live…
Thanks.
Steven.
