I am sure many others would like to see this being implemented within
clonezilla.  A friend of mine which has a computer lab at a school
which I worked before had like 15 machines down.  I told her to set up
one the way she liked and she did.  I then used Clonezilla-live to set
up the rest of the machines.  I had no problems with the machines that
had the same disk size.  However not all the machines had the same
hard drive size.  I still cloned the machine, but it took me a little
bit longer to do it.  I resized the OS to accomodate to the smaller
disk.  I ran scandisk + defragmenter, then used Gparted to resize the
partition ran chkdsk -p[very important* clonezilla won't restore if
there is a filesytem check in windows].  I tried again and it worked
:)  It can be done, but it takes a little bit longer.  It would be
awesome if clonezilla could do this by default :) , whenever there is
something out there there would hopefully be more users helping in
testing.  I do appreciate and am thankful to have clonezilla in my
arsenal of tools :)

Best Regards,

Antonio
