Hi, I'm having an issue resizing a clone. I'm using clonezilla 1.2.2.14 The disk image is from a VirtualBox VM running Ubuntu with XFS it's 10 GB The target frive is 200GB HDD I can restore the disk image via clonezilla using a samba server. The problem I am having is that the default values give me a 10 gig root partition (same size as original) If I select expert options with -r and -k1 the / partition is resized but so is the swapfile. If I select -k1 without -r I can't boot the newly clones system. I guess my questions is can I get clonezilla resize my / partition but live my swap partiton size the same as it's original. Thanks, Frank |

In that case, maybe you can create the partition table on the target disk manually before you restore the image. Make sure the partition size must be equal or larger than the original one. Then when you restore the image, choose "-k" to use the existing partition on the target disk, and remember to choose "-r". Steven.
