You should probably stop doing (4).
But this way I would have to disable secure boot to load old Clonezilla.
Disable secure boot, launch clonezilla, restore image, reenable secure
boot, start OS.
Well, why do you need to load old Clonezilla? Surely the new version of
the Clonezilla live boot environment should work just as well as the old
one?
I never found backward compatibility in Clonezilla versions, I remember
only a forward one a couple of years ago.
The reason is that the new version doesn't work as well as the old one.
It works, but performance has dropped to the floor. Disk image creation
is ok, image restore is too slow if destination is an NVME drive.
It's a serious difference, I'm not a maniac that crave for milliseconds.
In numbers: 2.8.1-12 restores a Windows main partition in 6-7 minutes,
next version 3.0.x takes 1 hour and 50 minutes. Notice: same image, from
same source to same destination.
Latest one 3.1.x are better, but they still take 70-72 minutes.
