I was using LIVE SE for some time but i found it to slow for my purpose.
I have too little experience with Debian/Ubuntu so I have set up a drbl
server on Fedora.
While i try to restore disk image to the client I get this message:
Unable to find target partition sda1
Looking at program messages i found that OCS-SR first changes the
partition table and then does first cylinder cleanup with dd erasing mbr.
No matter which client i use it's the same.
Steps to Reproduce:
Clean fedora 20 x64 install with rpmfusion, dbrl
Ad 69tcp to firewall, disable SELINUX
dcs ->clonzilla start -> all->restore image
Actual results:
Normal DBRL boot ok
restoredisk crash with "Unable to find target partition sda1"
Expected results:
cloned client

@tomawyder,
Thanks. However. could you please tell me
"there is a bug within order in the scripts that creates partition table and then deletes it cleaning mbr (with "dd if=/dev/zero")" -> Where the bug is?
I still can not find the codes you mentioned.
Thanks.
Steven.

So are you sure the Linux kernel on your OS support your hardware?
Or maybe you can try the latest Clonezilla live:
http://clonezilla.org/downloads.php
and if it works for your client machines, you can follow this to use the same version of Clonezilla live as the OS to run Clonezilla job on the clients:

as i wrote here
https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Help/thread/91414a5a/#15aa/99cf
it isn't hardware/module problem. I've tried both stable versions of drbl-live and clonezilla-live. the same issue apearred.
