Backup verification phase seems to ignore batch mode #154
Description
I run ocs-sr with the -batch parameter and pass ocs_live_batch=yes to the Clonezilla parameters, as well as noprompt to the kernel parameters. However, when the backup verification phase encounters problems, it hangs waiting for ENTER. Clonezilla live-3.2.2-15 and live-3.3.0-6 behave the same.
You can trigger this with Proxmox + thin pool + any VM or LXC inside it.

What's the complete command you ran?
Any log file you can share? e.g., /var/log/clonezilla.log

The command was
/usr/sbin/ocs-sr -q2 -batch -j2 -z9p -i 0 -sfsck -senc -p true savedisk 2025-08-30-15-48 sdaI ran it through screen, like this:
and you can actually read the "Press "Enter" to continue......" line in the
screen.log, near the end.clonezilla.zip

Thanks for your bug report. This issue was fixed and the next testing version of Clonezilla live will address this issue.
Fixed: --batch was not passed to check_image_if_restorable

BTW, this screen command inspired me we should have an option for people to use in the "run again" script. We will borrow this and use that in the future release of Clonezilla.
Thank you very much for sharing that.
Added an option to use screen in "run again" script.
