Steps
In your Clonezilla USB Stick open /boot/grub/grub.cfg using a text editor. After the following text Since no network setting in the squashfs image, therefore if ip=, the network is disabled.add the following to make this the first Clonezilla default entry:
menuentry "Flysoft RESTORE" {
search --set -f /live/vmlinuz
$linux_cmd /live/vmlinuz boot=live union=overlay username=user config components quiet noswap edd=on nomodeset enforcing=0 noprompt ocs_prerun="mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt" ocs_prerun1="mount --bind /mnt/images /home/partimag/" ocs_live_run="ocs-sr -g auto -e1 auto -e2 -r -j2 -k -scr -batch -p reboot restoredisk ask_user sda" keyboard-layouts="de" ocs_live_batch="yes" locales=de_DE.UTF-8 vga=788 ip= nosplash net.ifnames=0 splash i915.blacklist=yes radeonhd.blacklist=yes nouveau.blacklist=yes vmwgfx.enable_fbdev=1
$initrd_cmd /live/initrd.img
}

ocs_prerun="mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt" ocs_prerun1="mount --bind /mnt/images /home/partimag/" mounts /dev/sdb2/images as image repo
ocs_live_run="ocs-sr -g auto -e1 auto -e2 -r -j2 -k -scr -batch -p reboot restoredisk ask_user sda" restores image to /dev/sda and reboots
