The following is for booting USB flash drive on uEFI machine. First make
sure you only alow uEFI booting in your BIOS settings, not allowing
legacy BIOS to boot. This would make thing easier.
Second, if you enable secure boot in your BIOS settings, please use
Ubuntu-based Clonezilla live, like 20160529-xenal amd64 version:
http://clonezilla.org/downloads.php
It's recommended to use only one partition in your USB flash drive,
format it with FAT32 or NTFS partition, then just unzip the
clonezilla-live-20160529-xenial-amd64.zip on your USB flash drive.
That's all.
The doc on Clonezilla website is for booting USB flash drive both on
legacy BIOS and uEFI. If you just want to boot your USB flash on uEFI
machine, it's as easy as the above.
