[Clonezilla-live] Cloning WXP/ NTFS Drives

[Mike T. <mto...@bm...>]

I am using Clonezilla to clone Linux and Windows drives. On my test 
system, I am getting the message: "Error loading operating system" upon 
booting after the image is restored. I read the FAQ, checked google, and 
found the item below. The only problem is, the BIOS on my test machine 
can not be adjusted to use LBA mode (it's an old Dell laptop and, 
unfortunately, the only test PC model I have available right now). So 
the question is, is there anything I can do to make this drive bootable 
or create the image in such a way that it will be?

I'll continue to look around and post what I find. This is an 
outstanding product! I hope I can use it.

>From the Clonezilla FAQ:

# When I use clonezilla to clone M$ windows, there is no any problem when 
saving an image from template machine. However, after the image is 
restored to another machine, it fails to boot, the error message is 
"Missing Operating System". What's going on ?     ^TOP^

  	Usually this is because GNU/Linux and M$ windows interpret the CHS 
(cylinder, head, sector) value of harddrive differently. Maybe you can 
change the IDE harddrive setting in BIOS, try to use LBA instead of auto 
mode.
