I set up a CloneZilla server on Ubuntu 14.04 on a closed network using the server's DHCP service, so I can PXE boot. When attempting to PXE boot a computer, it just loads the OS of the CloneZilla server (Ubuntu 14.04) over the network. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I followed this video when attempting to set it up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkBetLzsWPY
Thanks in advance,

As I dig deeper into this I'm finding that DRBL is working as it should, but the DRBL menu post-pxe boot just doesn't present me with a CloneZilla option, only boot into Ubuntu. Perhaps I did something wrong during the setup? Do I need to turn on CloneZilla on the server?

Looks like the Linux kernel does not support your hardware well so /dev/sdb is not detected in the clients. Either to use Ubuntu 16.04 as the server so that you have a newer Linux kernel, or you can try this solution: http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-SE/use_clonezilla_live_in_drbl.php
and use the latest Clonezilla live, like 2.4.7-8 as client's OS when running Clonezilla job. It comes with Linux kernel 4.6 so it might support your hardware.

I took a video with my phone if anyone would be interested in seeing it.

Okay, got past that part. Now it just can't find the target drive that I want to restore the image to. http://imgur.com/QNPp2oO
