Hello

I'm still not sure how Clonezilla handles the bootloader in the MBR 
when restoring an image into a partition.

Does it _always_ restore the bootloader, so that I don't end up with 
either the Windows bootloader trying to boot Linux, or GRUB trying to 
boot Windows without GRUB's configuration files?

According to the documentation, through the "-g" option, it appears 
that Clonezilla will restore GRUB in the MBR if any partition is 
Linux and contains GRUB's configuration files.

Also, the "-t" option is set by default, so Clonezilla will restore 
the MBR: Here, does "MBR" mean the whole 512 bytes sector, or just 
the 440-byte bootloader?

Thank you.

PS: The Clonezilla contains links to the mailing lists and a 
web-based forum: Are e-mails sent to the mailing lists copied to the 
forums, or are those two totally separate? If the latter, which is 
more active: The mailing lists or the forums?
