Re: [Clonezilla-live] problems with a dual boot system

[Steven S. <st...@nc...>]

Robert,
When you use clonezilla live, it will mount your partition of external
device as /home/partimage (Clonezilla image home), that's why I need you
to show us the content of /home/partimag. If you manually mount that,
say you mount it as /media, it's ok, too. Please show us the results of
this command:
find /media -pirnt

Steven.
