    Running Windows 8 Pro upgrade
    Eset Smart Security
    Downloaded Clonezilla-live v 2.0.1.5-i686-pae.iso
    Downloaded it twice and ESET complained twice.
    Don't know how to do checksums. Eset SS might be giving a false positive4.
    Been using Clonezilla-live and ESET SS for years with no problems.
    Is anyone else having problems with this version of Clonezilla-live?

    For checksums look at
    http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/md5sums/
    Download: md5sums-1.2.zip
    This is a win32 console application.
    There is no GUI, but you can use Explorer to drag files *over* md5sums.exe to obtain their md5 hashes.

    Hint: If you have not a CD drive it would be better to use a .zip file for clonezilla, not an .iso file .

    (
    Then you could
    take a 2GB SD card  , new formated with NTFS .

    Download among
    Browse All Files (!)
    clonezilla-live-2.0.1-15-i686-pae.zip
    All extract..
    go to folder 'clonezilla-live-2.0.1-15-i686-pae'
    mark all extracted files and folders in it
    Send to .. USB_SD_card 

    Go to USB_SD_card 
    G:\utils\win32\makeboot.bat start with open

    Now you can use clonezilla.
    )

    Thanks for the reply Fusi1939.
    I downloaded md5sums-1.2.zip into a folder and unzipped it.
    From that point I have no idea how to use it - sorry.
    If you want to be a little more specific fine if not I am dead.

    When you use a CD, then take the .iso file.

    I think you have downloaded the checksum too. (http://www.clonezilla.org/downloads/stable/checksums.php)
    To obtain their md5 hashes:
    Open 2 windows. You should see
    'md5sums.exe'  (in one window)
    'clonezilla-live-2.0.1-15-i686-pae.iso' (in other window)
    Then with the mouse drag
    'clonezilla-live-2.0.1-15-i686-pae.iso'
    over
    'md5sums.exe'
    and let it fallen.
    Now you can see a DOS window with the md5 hashes and compare it with downloaded checksum.

    Thank you very much Fusi1939 for taking your time to help me.
    The check sums match so ESET SS is giving a false positive.
    Will know for sure when I do a backup with the new version.
