Hi,
I have a 0.5TB rotating rust disk currently having Windows 10 (GPT and EFI) which I want to migrate to a 1TB SSD disk.
My idea is to do a 'dd' of it. But then, once I make that boot, I want to enlarge the partition table and adds partitions for Linux and thus have double boot system.
What is the procedure for that "enlarging" of a GPT disk? Does GPT hold structures at the end of the layout that have to be moved?
Of course, I'm also googling "enlarging GPT disk, linux" and found hits, but seem to be about enlarging a partition, not the disk.
Should perhaps I use clonezilla instead of dd? Will it handle that case automatically?
Whenever I wanted to move Windows to a different disk I used the Windows backup facility, including the one that allows you to boot the backup and restore it to a new disk. I hope I am not way off base in making this suggestion, since users of this list are usually way ahead of me.
That requires a working Windows. It doesn't. I did the clone with Clonezilla, and at least the manufacturer windows rescue partition boots. The main one doesn't, but that is expected over USB. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
