Cloning a drive with clonezilla yields error when cloning to disk of same size

1

I have 2 x 500 GB drives. One is out of the box new and is on a USB external mount. The other is the source drive in my laptop.

When I use Clonezilla, I get an error saying The destination drive is too small.

It's by a few bytes, so can I get around this in advanced mode using the -icds command ? This is a Windows 7 machine booting with Clonezilla Silver CD.

For the record, it's 2 sectors too small! – biscuitcleaver – 2015-11-21T03:01:44.890

I got it to work with two options enabled: -icds and -k1. For some reason, Clonezilla gave me the same error with only -icds enabled.
