Disk image with Clonezilla question
Disk image with Clonezilla question
Hi everyone,
I’ve just used Clonezilla for the first time to clone a 500gb ssd with only 83gb being used.
Since only 83gb were used, could I clone that system on a computer with only 128gb? Or does it need to have at least 500gb of space even if most of it wasn’t used on my original system?
Clonezilla seems really practical but isn’t so accessible and I haven’t found an answer to that question online 😇
I’m using Fedora 38 but I don’t think it really matters.
You're viewing a single thread.
You can use Clonezilla to resize filesystems, so you ought to be able to clone that filesystem onto a smaller drive. It's been a couple decades since I used the tool, but I believe the guided steps should be enough to help you accomplish what you want - just be sure to thoroughly read the instructions!
@SpaceNoodle @Dariusmiles2123 I feel you on the 20yrs of not using certain things I used to use in my past. I’ve been catching up, the reads are amazing. Instructions were not my strong suit. We all live and learn.
