Hi, You can follow this: http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/doc/showcontent.php?topic=03_Disk_to_disk_clone and if you want to clonezilla to automatically create the partition size proportioinally, you enter expert mode, choose "-k1". If you want to create the partitions on the destination disk by yourself, you can do that, too. Just make sure the destination partition size is equal or larger than the source one.
