The image was saved by partclone, not ntfsclone. Therefore you have to 
run like this:

1. touch hda2.img

2. cat dir/hda2.ntfs-ptcl-img.gz.* |gzip -d -c | partclone.restore -C -s - -o 
hda2.img

(I think We will improve partclone.restore so that in the future you do not 
have to touch hda2.img first)

Please let us know your results.
