Steven, thank you very much for answering! I've on Friday decided to start a 2nd try, maybe just a one time error. And to be sure that the disk will not go to sleep, I've written a small and simple perl script which ran in parallel, writes a file and sleep for a minute, in a loop. Clonezilla has now successfully finished my recovery :)
