I've got a system that has 3 internal hard drives. I ran clonezilla (not sure what version, but probably < 1 year old) and saved all 3 drive images as part of the backup.
I want to restore 1 of those images to a drive that is at least as big as the original drive.
I'm not seeing an easy way to do this. In fact, I'm not seeing any instructions on how to do this at all.
Ideally, I'd like to point clonezilla at a set of "image sources" (either disk drives to be backed up, or drive images to restore), and for each image source, decide what, if anything, to do with it, and if something is going to be done with that image source, I can choose where it will go.
So if, for example, I have saved images of drives A, B, and C, I'd like to be able to say "Clonezilla, copy the saved image of drive B to (some disk drive, could be A, B, C, or something else on a different system).
Ideally, this recovery method would be usable by non-wizards.
Ideas?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Since you already have the image, when restoring, you can choose restoredisk, and select target "sda" as the destination disk.
Do you have any problem if you do like that? If so, please post the error messages. Thanks.
