Clonezilla reboot when finished

I successfully imaged my O.S. internal nvme drive using Clonzilla from the kernel plugin.

Using the GUI I set boot to Clonezilla once. Then ssh into Clonezilla and selected the backup options. One of the options was to reboot the system when the backup completed. However I could not get this to work. Instead of rebooting it gave some kind of error and went to command prompt. I had to manually restart with "sudo reboot".

Any idea why this didn't work?

My end goal is to create a system scheduled task that will boot to Clonezilla once, run Clonezilla to perform a backup (with preseeded configs), and then reboot.

Thanks for the replies.

This is the last few lines of the shell when the image finished. I had selected "reboot" in the options.

I guess there was no error except "The mounted bitlocker device was not found. Skip unmounting it." First I had to had to hit "enter" then to reboot I had to type "sudo reboot".

I tried a Clonezilla USB stick using the same options and it did reboot when finished.

...My end goal is to create a system scheduled task that will boot to Clonezilla once, run Clonezilla to perform a backup (with preseeded configs), and then reboot.

After a few hours of searching with my friend "Google", I figured a way to schedule an unattended Clonzilla backup of my O.S. drive using the openmediavault-kernel plugin with Clonezilla installed. This website was my inspiration Automated Clonezilla Backup/Restore

These are the steps I took to get it working with my hardware.

1. Created a file called "43_clonezilla" (modified copy of 42_clonezilla) in /etc/grub.d

#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
menuentry 'Clonezilla Live Unattended' {
  set isofile="/boot/clonezilla-live-3.0.2-21-amd64.iso"
  loopback loop $isofile
  linux (loop)/live/vmlinuz boot=live live-config noswap edd=on nomodeset ocs_prerun="mount /dev/sda1 /mnt" ocs_prerun1="mount --bind /mnt/Backup/restore /home/partimag/" ocs_live_run="ocs-sr -q2 --batch -z1p -sc -p reboot savedisk autoname nvme0n1" ocs_live_extra_param="" keyboard-layouts=NONE locales="en_US.UTF-8" vga=788 nosplash toram=filesystem.squashfs findiso=$isofile
  initrd (loop)/live/initrd.img
}

2. Updated grub in terminal with "sudo update-grub"

3. In Openmediavault System / Scheduled tasks, I created a scheduled task using these commands

grub-reboot "Clonezilla Live Unattended"; systemctl reboot

I have a 256GB nvme drive with 8.6GB used space and the Clonezilla backup image is 4.1GB. Running the scheduled task manually took less than 5 minutes to complete.

So, would it be feasible to add a Clonezilla option to the openmediavault-backup plugin?
