Re: CloneZilla Restore (UUID) error ?

I created a script for easier Linux system backups. However, I had to
use the UUID number instead of the disk/partition name: sda/nvme.
I noticed that in my system, the system partition, e.g.,
/dev/nvme1n1p4, changes to /dev/nvme0n1p4 after running CloneZilla.
This means that CloneZilla accidentally changes the name if I have two
NVMe drives. I don't know if this is the fault of CloneZilla or my
laptop: Lenovo, and
it's just a specific configuration issue :-)
After making a correct image copy (UUID) and restoring it to the
partition using the UUID, everything went fine, but with errors at the
end:

After restarting the computer, however, everything is fine... the GRUB
menu works fine, as do the third operating system (MINT/MX/Windows) :-)
Where can I find the errors CloneZilla reports when restoring an image
file using the UUID partition number method?

Why does CloneZilla rename NVMe drives?
my script + .deb version:

The Clonezilla live 3.3.0-3 test version has the following information in the changelog:
Bug fixed: Wrong device name due to missing /dev/ for check_if_containing_thin_lv.
Maybe this issue has already been resolved?
I'll have to check it out :-)
Ps. I think it's the same... error entries. But restoring the saved image was successful! All three operating systems are working correctly, and the GRUB menu is also OK with all entries.

"Why does CloneZilla rename NVMe drives?" -> This is the "feature" for Linux kernel. For more info, please check:

That's actually the pain for Clonezilla project...
