    Hi,

    I am trying to use Clonezilla on a computer with an MSI Z490-A Pro motherboard but it doesn't recognize the LAN adapter (Realtek RTL8125B). Is there an easy fix for this? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Which verison of Clonezilla live did you use?
    Have you tried testing Clonezilla live, e.g., 2.6.8-12 or 20200922-groovy?
    https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php
    They come with newer Linux kernel so your hardware might be supported.

    Hi Steven,

    Thank you for your suggestion. I tried all the latest versions of Clonezilla live given on the downloads page but with no luck. Here is the screenshot of the error I get in all of them: https://imgur.com/ERDaY1T

    I can get the network card to work on Ubuntu 20.04 for example if I install its driver (2.5G Ethernet LINUX driver r8125 for kernel up to 5.6) from the Realtek website at this link:
    https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/category/network-interface-controllers-10-100-1000m-gigabit-ethernet-pci-express-software

    But I am not sure if this can also be done with a Clonezilla live USB. I use Clonezilla live USB to clone 20 computers over the network with multicast.

    Thank you for your help.
