@jonathan-cool Can you share a picture of the device that fails? (please check for plugged in USB sticks, SD cards and such as well)
-
@quazz Hi,
You wants a picture of the error with the HP2530 computer ?(no usb stick or any SD cards …)
-
@jonathan-cool Yes, plus some info on the disk would be nice too.

I used ssh connection to copy and paste the result …

@jonathan-cool Makes sense. With 2:1 it will think that the OS partition shouldn’t get resized, so it reads the original size (which is 160GB) which in turn is bigger than the target hard drive.
I am not sure why :1 by itself wouldn’t work though.
Can you try leaving the file empty and see if that helps?
I have Dutch Windows which also doesn’t get have reserved system picked up properly and for me the file is simply empty. Which seems to work alright.

Failed … and same error.
But i agree with your idea and, it’s make sense.Maybe i don’t use the right process to create my VM into Virtualbox …
I choosed a 160Gb Virtual Size disk … -
@jonathan-cool Dynamic or Static? (Dynamic could cause issues, not to mention it’s slow)
You do seem to have a lot of empty space in your virtual environment, but this shouldn’t really impact the deployment process, imo.
Resizable image type should be able to resize it correctly.

During creation process of Golden Image, in VirtualBox, i choosed Dynamic disk …
On VirutalBox, i can see : Virutal Size : 160Gb. -
I’m alone now ? …
-
@jonathan-cool Sorry, forgot to reply.
As far as I can recall, dynamic disk can give issues for resizable image type. I haven’t been able to find when/how this was a problem using the search, however.
Only advice I can give is to try and make it a fixed size drive and see if that helps at this point

Marked this solved as the initial issue can be circumnavigated and we have a github issue open on that topic.
