No restore option with Clonezilla

clonezilla

I used Clonezilla to back up the image of a disk on a Dell Inspiron PC on which I had installed Debian 7.0. I saved the images to a 2 TB Western Digital MyBook. Everything appeared to work fine. Now I would like to restore the disk. I follow the instructions here but, after choosing "Beginner Mode", I get to the screen where I should be able to choose "Restore Disk" but the only options are:

Save disk
Save parts
Exit

I can see the WD MyBook when I am running Clonezilla and I choose that as the source of the image. I also followed the solution posted here and set up the directory structure on the MyBook as follows.

C:/MyBook/AppServerCloneZilla/2014-06-09-00-imgAppServer

2014-06-09-00-imgAppServer contains the clonezilla-img list file. It doesn't matter whether I choose the top directory of the MyBook or I choose /CloneZillaBackup/, I only get the 3 options listed above. I never get the option to "Restore Disk".

OK. It appears I have solved the problem. It seems that Clonezilla doesn't like too many subdirectories. I moved 2014-06-09-00-imgAppServer up to the same level as AppServerCloneZilla. That is

C:/MyBook/2014-06-09-00-imgAppServer

Now I have the restore option.
