- booted up Clonezilla Live via CD drive (no other drives were physically attached). - Once Clonezilla was "Started" (seeing the welcome screen and getting past the keyboard stuff) then, uh....cough, cough, I just connected drives (image source.....then, destination) that I thought were to be connected at a certain time. Question concerning "drive location". Does that mean that each usb port on my machine assigns a specific /dev/sda...../dev/sdb? I thought sda was the first drive plugged in. Then after a 2nd drive is attached the new one is called sdb? Now, would you please tell me how to get the drives in the right position sda and sdb wise? (Assuming that's what I'm supposed to do).
