[Clonezilla-live] device restoring, Box is an unknown hard drive device

[Dirk M. <dir...@gm...>]

Hello,
with Clonezilla 3.3.0-33-amd I tried to restore an older windows 7 disk-image 
formlerly created with an older clonezilla version for intel cpus.
Clonezilla stopped with message: "Box is an unknown hard drive device"
Is restoring older windows images on intel not supported by actual clonezilla 
version?

Hello Dan,
thanks for your answer.
I will try to restore with older version of clonezilla. But where to get?
Download page offers only actual versions.

Please:
1.  Take a photo about the error messages on the screen and share that.
2.  Share the log file /var/log/clonezilla.log

Thanks.
