" I got the module 8021q into initrd-pxe by modifying mkpxeinitrd-net, but it does not appear to load." -> How did you do that? Or maybe you can manually edit initrd-pxe.img? e.g., 1. mkdir initrd 2. cd initrd 3. zcat /tftpboot/nbi_img/initrd-pxe.img | sudo cpio -idm 4. Put you 8021q kernel module in the corresponding path in the dir "initrd". E.g., sudo cp /lib/modules/<your-kernel-version>/kernel/net/8021q/8021q.ko ./lib/modules/<same-version>/kernel/net/8021q/ 5. sudo depmod -b . <kernel-version>...

Did you mean this? https://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-SE/use_clonezilla_live_in_drbl.php Or maybe you can try Clonezilla lite server? https://clonezilla.org/show-live-doc-content.php?topic=clonezilla-live/doc/11_lite_server
Updated testing GParted live as 1.7.0-10.
Bitlocker is the NTFS but it is encrypted. We do not support decrypte that when saving it as an image. Hence if you care about the rate, you can unlock the bitlocker in your MS Windows. With that, Clonezilla will have better efficiency.
"When will this change get deployed into the stable version?" -> Not very sure. However, we definitely will have another stable one in late Oct. If Clonezilla live 3.3.0-17 works for you, you can stick to that version.
