For gosh sakes I didn’t use Clonezilla to begin with. Three years ago I used HDclone and cloned my backup from my previous computer to this HP that I pulled out of streaming service and pressed it into service for this Server. I didn’t know anything about EFI. I believe if I had and had disabled it before I clone this on to the HP I wouldn’t have had this issue.
