Clonezilla Testing

[livesonwater2632]

I'm not sure if anyone else has run into this problem, but when netbooting into clonezilla, I was repeatedly prompted for a login for localhost.localdomain. This occurred after the 'Don't touch keymap' prompt After searching around, I needed to add "live-config" to the options (click tab to edit options). After doing this, it no longer prompted for this and I was able to continue through the backup.

Have used this frequently with no issues. What version are you using? Also, can you explain in more detail where this occurred?

I am using version 1.2.6-24. From the Amahi Netboot Main menu, I select Clonezilla, then select Clonezilla again. I then get prompted for a language and select English. Next I select "Don't touch keymap" it's after this stage that I see a bunch of commands scroll thru. The last line says:

Code: Select all

Debian GNU/Linux squeeze/sid localhost.localdomain tty1 localhost.localdomain login:

I found what I think to be a similar problem in the clonezilla forums http://sourceforge.net/projects/clonezi ... ic/3868703

The solution suggested about adding live-config to the end of the options worked for me. That post references the release notes for 1.2.6-24 here: http://clonezilla.org/download/sourcefo ... -notes.php

I will take a look at the app and modify accordingly. I don't recall having the same issue, but won't hurt to add the option.

Thanks for letting us know. This is why feedback is important from users when testing apps. Helps us fix the issues.

The app has been modified to include live-config as noted. It should now work as designed. Sorry I missed that when I updated versions. I usually test them, but must have gotten sidetracked.

Thanks for pointing out the issue and the resolution. That is what testing is all about!
