In the past years, there was no problem for us to boot the Clonezilla live with NVIDIA graphic card. We recently purchased new machines with AMD Radeon Pro 5500 XT graphic card, and tried to run Clonezilla from USB but failed. The screen went black.
Our machines are all 64-bit. From running Clonezilla am64 USB, the screen went blank (no MENU or text showed). While tried running Clonezilla i686 USB, the MENU was showed but hung once select ANY option. (Tried press "e" to modify the command but no luck)
We were experiencing the similar difficulty with Ubuntu installation (installed from USB). And the problem was resolved by disabling the kernel mode setting in GRUB. Please suggest.
Any input will be greatly appreciated.
I have tried both "Stable - 2.8.1-12" and "test - 2.8.2-5" version. Same result.
Did you try Ubuntu-based Clonezilla live? E.g., 20220204-*?

Is it possible to create an ISO with Apple T2 patches built-in for the next new Clonezilla version?
I am able to install Ubuntu (mbp-ubuntu generated by "Ubuntu/Mint/Debian kernel 5.6+ with Apple T2 patches built-in" in the new generation iMac (AMD Radeon Graphic Card + Apple T2 Security Chip). Hopefully, this also can be implemented in Clonezilla as well.
Here is the reference:

Thanks for your feedback.
We have very limited man power in this project, and we use the Linux kernel from Debian or Ubuntu repository. You can customize this kind of your own version of Clonezilla live if you do need that. In the FAQ we have doc which mentions how to customize that.
