Thanks for the reply My suspicion is that it is not Clonezilla related; however, what makes me ask for suggestions in the forum is the fact that it went from, not happening to happening with all the (3) SSDs I use to store Clonezilla images. If I tell Clonezilla to "check and repair the image before cloning it", it helps but does not eliminate the problem. Suggestions are welcome but I can not test as another machine is not available!

Not implying it is a Clonezilla originated problem, just looking to see if anyone else has experienced this during a Clonezilla execution. During the last couple of weeks I have been having increasing number of instances where upon finishing and rebooting, the image is simply not there in the external SS it should be in (or elsewhere). No error messages are given during the process. Tried deleting all in the Clonezilla partition of the external SSD of the storage drive, recopied and extracted Clonezilla...

During the last couple of weeks I have been having increasing number of instances where upon finishing and rebooting, the image is simply not there. But no error or messages are given during the process. Tried deleting all in the clonezilla partition of the external SSD storage drive and recopied and extracted the file, no difference. Tried switching to the most recent live version (3.2.1-9)and it did the same thing ( sometimes cloned ok sometimes not). Went back to using this version. Selected "check...

Selected "check the image and fix error before making it, it worked a few times, not any more. What could be going on? Suggestions for a fix are welcome. Did not have a problem ever...

Using GParted (download from Clonezilla – Sourceforge site) to shrink or make a partition smaller in size, so that it may be cloned to another (target) SSD which is 50 GB smaller that the source SSD. The need for this procedure arose out of the interest to replace the original system SSD the laptop was shipped with (could only choose size, not model), with one of my choosing that had more information available for display and management capabilities through Samsung Magician (a Samsung 970 PRO 1T)....

Both SSDs were advertised as 1Ts, but unknown at the time, the replacement/target SSD was slightly smaller than the original/source SSD by ±40 GB. Also, the process needed to be “relatively” safe, because it involved making...
