Thanks! I found that my mistake was to use partclone instead of
ntfsclone, because in an older version of Clonezilla, ntfsclone was
the default option, so I assumed it still was the default option, but
the newest version changed things a bit.
We have switched to partclone for a long time. :)
About what you said: Clonezilla gives dire warnings about how a USB
hard drive might not be usable if the computer is improperly shut down
during the Clonezilla process. Could this really happen? I would never
improperly shut it down myself intentionally, but if the power fails
during the process, it's out of my control.
Yes. If the USB drive is removed when a file system is written, or
without unmounting properly, the file system might be broken.
If something like that happened, would the USB drive become a
permanent doorstopper, or is there still a way to make it usable
again? Will I lose any other data that's already stored on the USB drive?
Normally it's only file system broken, i.e. software issue. Not hardware
issue.
Steven.
