      The smaller to larger worked fine as well.
      here are all the d1.partition and d1.minimum.partitions I have (will update this post tomorrow with the recaptured first image) so it’s all in one spot

      1909 image

      for reference of old windows partition table
      This was NOT created with the new init, included this for comparison.

        @sebastian-roth Do we also need to do some testing with this init on older versions of windows to be sure it doesn’t break anything there?
        And Other OS’s too? Like maybe at least 1 linux distro

          @JJ-Fullmer Thanks for posting the other details as well. Looking all fine so far. We definitely want to do further tests.

          Could you do one with Windows 7? Be sure to install in UEFI mode to get a GPT partition layout.

          I can look into testing a Linux distro.

          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

            @sebastian-roth I’m working on a windows 8.1 w/update image (since windows 7 isn’t supported anymore)
            Will let you know the results

                  @btoffolon What version of FOG are you using? The init error your seeing would seem to indicate you need to change the init ramdisk size from 127000 to 275000. This can be done from FOG Configuration Page -> FOG Settings.

                  If this is already set to 275000 then it would seem the full init wasn’t downloaded.

                  Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

                  Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                        @btoffolon That is kinda strange. I don’t think I have seen this error message before but it sounds like the init is corrupt or not fully loaded when booting. Though it doesn’t make sense to me as the original FOG 1.5.9 init works for you and other people tested this alpha stage init recently as well.

                        Please run those commands and post output here:

                        ls -al /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe/init-201114.xz

                          @btoffolon Does this machine image fine with the original init?
                          You can also try a different bzImage. I’m using 5.618RT3 made by @george1421 found here https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/15017/lenovo-l13-yoga-maybe-the-usb-cable-is-bad-error-when-trying-to-register/18?_=1610731427661

                          I may have forgotten that I was using a different bzImage kernel when I started testing for this…

                          Have you tried the FogApi powershell module? It's pretty cool IMHO

                              Hello,

                              I came across this thread looking for answers to the same issue which was being faced. I couldn’t deploy an image captured from a larger disk to a smaller one.

                              Ran through the steps listed above, and it worked first time like a charm. Many thanks for your continued work on this project.

                              Here are the contents of the files.

                                Hi

                                I’ve just tested this an it worked without issues - Thank you. I will try to post the contents of those files shortly. My question is, is this new init file good to be made the default somehow?

                                  @georgebells said in Move partition in GPT layout - need people to test:

                                  is this new init file good to be made the default somehow?

                                  With sufficient testing yes, plus it will be included the next release of fog (1.5.10). What I would do if it tests stable for you is to go into /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe directory and rename the current init.xz to init.xz.orig and then copy over the updated init to init.xz Doing so will make it default for all systems. On the next update of FOG that “patched” init will be replaced with the official 1.5.10 version. Doing it this way will keep you from having to remember to switch back the default init to init.xz in the future.

                                  There is a way to update the configuration in fog settings to make the default init something other than init.xz, but changing it this way causes you to have to remember to switch it back later.

                                  Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                                    @GeorgeBells While I agree with George I still want to emphasize this is in an early testing stage. Using it as default is on your own risk. Don’t blame me if causes an issue.

                                      I think we are getting closer to finishing this new feature. I looked through the code changes again and finally found some time to do more testing on this. Simple Debian UEFI install with sda1=/boot, sda2=/ and sda3=swap.

                                      Initial install on a 64 GB (virtual) disk - d1.partitions:

                                      label: gpt

                                      Deployed it to 32 GB disk and 256 GB disk and both worked fine. System booted and sda2 was expanded to whatever the disk size was (minus /boot and swap) and moved sda3=swap all the way to the end. With that d1.minimum.partitions I could deploy this to a disk as small as roughly 4,2 GB:

                                          Hi, i have a new issue when i deploy W10 2004 on a smaller SSD. i put an error screen and break the disk partitions. I can’t format it on windows (i don’t try on linux) there is now a protected GPT partition. Did i do something wrong ?

                                          Thanks for reading.

                                          This is the d1.partition :

                                            @btoffolon said in Move partitions on GPT layouts - need people to test:

                                            /dev/sda3 : start=      239616, size=    80978882, ...
/dev/sda4 : start=   249022976, size=     1046528, ...

                                            Looks like FOS was not able to move the 4th partition forward as the start sector number is the same in both files.

                                            Create a new image definition for testing. Then assign this new image to the host you capture from and schedule a debug capture task. Boot it up and hit ENTER twice to get to the command shell. Now run the simple command fog to start capturing and step through the process. At some point you see it print the partition tables on screen. Take a picture of all that and post here. If unsure what to take a photo of, take some more, upload all pictures to a file share and post a link here.

                                            Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
