Hi,

Just found Clonezilla, and look very promissing at this stage.

Has anyone had any experience creating there own recovery boot partition?

Much like what comes with alot of laptops. I would like to be able to create an option in the boot loader. When selected would boot a recovery program (Clonezilla) and restore an image. Ideally with no or minimal input from the user.

If anyone could help me out or point me in the right direction it will be most appreciated.

Thanks.

Yes, you can.
You can combine the advanced mode here:
http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/make-live-recovery.php
then put it in your hard drive like this:

Hi Steven,

Just wondering if there is any documentation to make Clonezilla to boot off a partition in a Windows PC? If so can you share it?
Trying to do it it for weeks and keep hitting a brick wall.

Cheers
