We are using clonezilla to move a VM to a new system. Clonezilla has worked flawlessly until we tried booting it on a Samba vm which contains 2 disks. One disk contains only the OS and the other disk contains the samba shares and home directories for the samba service.
Clonezille ONLY see's the OS drive and doesn't allow us to select the data drive we need to clone. Here are some details from the VM booted up about the drives.
Only the 20Gig drive is shown as an option in clonezilla to select, not the 100Gig.

What is your data drive device name? Does it contain any partition?
