I have a weird problem that I haven't had before, and I was using clonezilla for this purpose a few months (last version). I'm trying to get an image from my nvme hard drive, but when one of the three partitions starts to getting save I get this message:
"ntfsclone-ng.c: used blocks count mismatch: 2530584 in header, 3757113 from read_bitmap"
It is obvious fault of one of the partitions, the number 3 of 3, because I tried to do the images separatedly and I only have issues with the last one.
I tried "chkdsk /f" and selecting the "-fsck-src-part-y" when I'm saving an image, but the error still appearing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
So you have tried the "chkdsk /f" on MS Windows, and it can boot without any issue?
If so, which version of Clonezilla live did you try?
Have you tried the latest stable Clonezilla live, i.e., 2.6.1-25 or 20190420-disco: https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php

I ran into the same problem trying to clone a windows 10 system partition which I earlier resized (size reduction) using gparted. Since this is one of the rare posts on the internet addressing this problem at all I want to present what fixed it for me und windows 10:
Run chkdsk /f using these steps:
1. Right click Start button end choose Powershell (run as admin)
2. run "chkdsk /f" => Powershell states that drive can't be checked since it is in use and suggests to check it on restart => Select "Yes"
3. Restart computer and let chkdsk run
Note: Running chkdsk via explorer => right click on drive => preferences => tools => check drive (or similar, I have a german installation) is NOT sufficient.
