I have just used this to get an image from our Surface Pro3's and back again. Also on Our Dell Venue 11 Pro's...
But, I do not know how to change to the "image" USB flash drive to list and to delete the preliminary images, it is going to run out of space soon.. Only have a 128GB flash at the moment.
Anyway it shows as /dev/sdc in the list (Gparted) and (Clonezilla)
How can I change to that "drive" and delete an old image, well, last weeks' but still the older one...
I know only a small amount of Linux commands... ls -l cd .. cd \ ./prog.... etc.
So, anyway I hope this is clear enough for an answer...
PS - We tried it from "Fogserver" that a colleague had set up, and it said that we had no permission to delete any of the images.... Then I later learned that the password for user on clonezilla / debian is "live" and I can then use "sudo su" to become 'root'.... it worked on the clonezilla flash drive boot. I was able to poke around, and use 'poweroff' as the instruction notes said, (which beforehand, I was told only root can do that"
Anyway, no go on deleting from another Linux machine... what am I missing there?

Wow, 27 views, not one response....
ok, well, I figured it out.
I brought my Linux Mint 17 laptop in, and was able to delete the images on the flash drive.
I just had to run as root....locally.

"How can I change to that "drive" and delete an old image" ->
Normally from the mounting status, e.g.
http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/doc/02_Restore_disk_image/images/ocs-08-img-repo-df.png
which is obtained by "df -ah", you can find the mounting point. In the above case, you can:
1. sudo su -
2. cd /home/partimag/
3. rm -rf "YOURIMAGE"
That's all.
