QUESTION

How to resize partition size while the middle partition is the BIOS Boot?

Asked 2021-Mar-30 at 11:28

I used Clonezilla to restore an old system to a larger hard disk. However, when I do all my job, I found my first partition doesn't use all the disk space.

I know the method to resize the partition size by using fdisk, however, I noticed that there is a BIOS boot partition between the first partition and free space. Now I don't know how to deal with it.

So I want to ask how to expand my first partition to use most of my free space in this disk.

The second partition type is BIOS Boot, Contents: Unknown

QUESTION

Using a CLI to recover a disk image saved with clonezilla

Asked 2020-May-04 at 12:40

I have setup a live CentOS 7 that is booted via PXE if the client is connected to a specified network port.

Once the Linux is booted up, I have scripted a small logic that compares if there is a newer image version available on a central host than it is already deployed on the client. This is done with comparing the contents of a versions file. If there is a newer version, the image should be deployed on the client. Else only parts of the Image (qcow2-Files) should be replaced to safe time. Since the Image is up to 1TB I do not want to apply the image at any case. It would also take too long.

On the client, there is a volume group that consists of lvms in different sizes and also "normal" partitions (like /dev/sda1).

Is there a way to deploy a whole partition structure using a cli? I already figured this to recover one disk out of the whole system. But this would make a lot of effort to script around that to get the destination structure I want.

I found out that there is no way to "run" clonezilla as a cli (which I actually cannot understand why this does not exist). I was trying to use parts of the clonezilla live iso with the command "ocs-sr", but I stuck somewhere and it always gives me a "unknown commands"-Error.

For my case the best would be a thing like:

I've found that using Clonezilla's preparation script does the thing for me. You can use ocs_prerun parameter that will run a script before clonezilla will do anything. If you are stuck into a company hardened image, you can try this to setup a (ubuntu) Linux with the needed programs on it.
