I have been testing image restore using CloneZilla Live Server and booting clients over PXE LAN.

The process seems to complete without any errors and I can boot the restored image on a new device.

However, when I enter the BIOS on the PC that received the image, I see duplicated entries for Windows Boot Manager and the internal SSD (NVMe) disk. There is a differing ID# for the disk but I've never seen this issue before.

Is there a step or fix for this?

Windows seems to have its way to add that when the 1st boot after restoring. Hence you can manually remove the one you do not want in your BIOS.
