Select advanced parameters
Choose the extra parameters you want. Here we just press enter to accept the default settings:

Choose the option "" (Use the partition table from image)

If the target disk size is larger than the size of source disk of image "precise-2012-11-27-img", you can try to use option "-k1" which will create the partition table proportionally in the target disk and turn on option "-r" to resize the file file system in the partition automatically. This is useful to make use all of the target disk size.

Choose the action when cloning finished: "-p true"

If the destination disk is smaller than the source disk, if using beginner mode, you will see an error message like this (attempting to restore an image saved from 17.1 GB to a smaller disk (8.5 GB):

If you are sure all the data from the image could fit the smaller disk, i.e. it won't be written to the wrong disk space, you can check the option "-icds". Warning! To select this option, you have to know what you are doing!.

Restoring a big partition to a smaller partition with Clonezilla

single-partitioned 750GB disk which wasn't booting anymore because of bad sectors but I had only a 160GB....

Under Clonezilla I loaded the image then checked the options "-ICDS" in the first options screen and "-k1" in the second... the software restored the data and then the screen showed an error of some sort that I can't remember right now but was involved with space available on the target disk.

So I rebooted the system and started with the local disk (the one that I restored the image on), choose to "Load the (Windows) startup repair" which took a few minutes then I rebooted the system again and, after some grinding, it loaded Windows flawlessly!
