Hello I'm still not sure how Clonezilla handles the bootloader in the MBR when restoring an image into a partition. Does it _always_ restore the bootloader, so that I don't end up with either the Windows bootloader trying to boot Linux, or GRUB trying to boot Windows without GRUB's configuration files? According to the documentation, through the "-g" option, it appears that Clonezilla will restore GRUB in the MBR if any partition is Linux and contains GRUB's configuration files. Also, the "-t" option is set by default, so Clonezilla will restore the MBR: Here, does "MBR" mean the whole 512 bytes sector, or just the 440-byte bootloader? Thank you. PS: The Clonezilla contains links to the mailing lists and a web-based forum: Are e-mails sent to the mailing lists copied to the forums, or are those two totally separate? If the latter, which is more active: The mailing lists or the forums? |
