    Hi,

    I have an HP Envy X2 with UEFI.

    When I start with the latest version in EFI mode, before Grub, an error message appears: Cannot load module video. Then Grub appears.

    I try with any choice grub disappears but nothing is loaded. The computer turns off.

    I tried other EFI and everything programs works without problem.

    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Fabien

    Which version of Clonezilla live did you use?
    Did you try the latest testing one? e.g. 2.1.2-11 or 20130606-raring?

    Steven.

    Could you try to boot Ubuntu 13.04? E.g.
    http://releases.ubuntu.com/13.04/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent
    So that we know the upstream works or not.
    Thanks.

    Steven.

      Hi Steven,

      Thank you for your reply.

      I am looking to test your proposal, but my computer has a 32-bits CPU. While Ubuntu does not support 32-bits EFI and 64-bits version, of course, do not work on a 32-bits platform (I have not tried). Do you have another suggestion ?

      Maybe the problem is there, the 32-bits EFI does not work well while the 64-bits version of EFI work without problem (tested on IMac).

    I'm running into the same problem with EFI for a Dell Latitude 10 Tablet (32-bit Windows 8 on Intel Atom Z2760). I've tried 2.1.1-25, 2.1.2-15, 20130429-raring and 20130619-raring but all having the video error message. It worked on MS Surface Pro Tablet (64-bit on Windows 8 on Intel i5). I've been trying to figure this for months without success. PLEASE HELP!

    @Fabien,
    "computer has a 32-bits CPU" -> Are you sure it's 32-bit CPU?
    Is it a very old one? Like 5 years ago?
    If it's not so old, maybe it is an amd-64/x86-64 CPU...

    Steven.

      Hi Steven,

      :-)

      I'm sure it is a 32 bit (I know, it's weird). No, this is a latest model that just came out (I bought it new about a month ago). Look at www.hp.com/Envyx2. The processor is Intel® Atom™ Z2760. Look at
      http://ark.intel.com/fr/products/70105/Intel-Atom-Processor-Z2760-1MB-Cache-1_80-GHz

      For information : it is excellent, it's tablet and notebook simultaneously.

      Please Help, I know that using Clonezilla. I won't want to use another ware.

    Hi Steven,

    Problem betweens EFI and UEFI ?

    For information: the kernel and initramfs is loaded and after blocking occurs.

    I hope you find a solution soon :-)

    Sorry, here I have no such hardware to reproduce the issue, so I have no idea how to fix it. Maybe we have to wait for the grub in Debian Sid to be updated. Clonezilla live's upstream is Debian, so maybe you should try to file a bug on Debian's bug system.

    Steven.

      Hi Steven,

      I just made some tests with VirtualBox virtualization.

      Here are the results :

      With the i386 version of Debian: no problem, the vmlinux and initrd runs without problem.

      And I wanted to see how to react Clonezilla VirtualBox: no problem. He runs...

      What do you think about Steven ?

      At first I thought it was the PAE, but I also tested a version
      Clonezilla for i486 same problem.

    Hi,

    Ok. Thanks.

    For information, I just tested the latest test version (2.1.2-20). Always the
    same problem.

    Grub appears, I choose the default and then vmlinux and initrd are loaded
    but then the computer freezes and remains on the image of Grub.

    Hi Fabien,
    Let's focus on one thread, this one:
    https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/bugs/180/
    There is no need to duplicate that.
    Thanks.

    Steven.
