I'm using Clonezilla to restore the same linux image on different machines. The different machines has different disks but all bigger than my image so i'm using "-r" for fitting in the bigger disks.
My problem is:
If the disk is ssd and i use -r the alignment of the partitions is not conserved (the source disk for the image is aligned for ssd) the restored (bigger) partitions are not aligned. Is there an option or a way to resize and restore on bigger disk without loosing the alignment?
I know that i can fix it after with gparted ecc, but each day i'm restoring a large number of machines and is time expensive doing it manually on each one.
Thank you!

"Is there an option or a way to resize and restore on bigger disk without loosing the alignment?" -> No, it does not exist in Clonezilla. However, of course you can use other tools for that, as you have mentioned.
