Imaging using partclone instead of partimage
-
Thank you, Gilou and Tom! I wish I knew more about programming, and really hope I can do something to help, but it looks like my only hope will be waiting for you guys to come up with a working solution.

Attached, find my patch for the fog script to use partclone instead of partimage.
Hopefully it helps.
Copy it to your fog server, preferably in /tftpboot/fog/images
Then:
Run these commands to edit your init.gz file. (MAKE SURE YOU’RE ON AS ROOT YOU NEED TO MOUNT THE IMAGE)
[code]cd /tftpboot/fog/images
mkdir tmp
gunzip init.gz
mount -o loop init tmp
patch -p1 tmp/bin/fog < fog.diff.txt
umount tmp
rm -rf tmp
gzip -9 init[/code][url=“/_imported_xf_attachments/0/445_fog.diff.txt?:”]fog.diff.txt[/url]

Hi Tom,
Can I use this script under version 0.32? Honestly, I like 0.32 better than 0.33b
Thanks,

Here is the result when I applied the patch to 0.32, and attached is the fog.rej file.

I’ll take a look at the fog 0.32 fog script and make the changes to it. The diff I gave you before is for 0.33

When I applied it to 0.33b here is the result:
[B][root@foggy ~]# patch -p1 tmp/bin/fog < fog.diff.txt [/B]

If you could make it work on 0.32, it would be so wonderful! Thank you very much!

If you’re using the 0.32 init.gz file, it doesn’t come precompiled with the partclone files.
Have you built your own init.gz file with partclone? If so, then I can do the script, if not, there’s not a lot that I can do to help.
I could build you a custom init.gz but I don’t know how much you would enjoy that as I don’t have the capacity (at the moment) to test this. I’d basically be building in the dark.

Thanks for trying to help me. I can try the 0.33b version again. But do you know why when I patch 0.33b there is one error, is it critical? Please see my above post.

Also, I will try to give more insight on how to be able to resize ext[34] partition… There are no reason not to do the same we do for NTFS partition using resize2fs, assuming it’s inside the init.gz, haven’t even checked for it yet
-
Gilou,
It does not currently contain resize2fs. I’m building another version of init.gz right now with resize2fs enabled. Hopefully this will help you, and all of us out.
Thank you,
