      @Tom-Elliott Ok, so this is what I’ve done and got:

      Fog clear partitions.jpg

      Want me to try to deploy again now?

        @vanopy don’t try to deploy yet as it will still error out the same way.

        What’s output when you run:
        partprobe /dev/sda; fdisk -l /dev/sda

            @vanopy Is this what your d1.minimum.partitions file looks like?

              @Tom-Elliott I believe so, this is how it looks:

                @vanopy Why are all the quotes listed as .?

                  @Tom-Elliott Good question, I just copy/pasted them from what you gave me, just noticed myself.
                  I’ll edit those and see if that changes anything.

                    @Tom-Elliott Ok, so I’ve replaced the . by ", but it doesn’t really change anything, I’m still getting exactly the same error when I run the commands.

                      Can you paste the contents of your d1.minimum.partitions here?

                      There may appear to be an error, but that’s not a bad thing in and of itself. The reason it failed to create any other partitions was because line 8 (the first partition) had met symbols that didn’t make sense (the .)

                      Replacing all of the . with " should allow the partitions to at least get created.

                          Ticket can be closed for me.
                          I’ve captured a completely new image, before doing so, I’ve shrunk the disk, just to make sure.
                          Deployment is now working as expected for me.
                          Thanks for your assistance.
