Hard drive resize is not expanding

@Doctrg, @andreas.paul If you can try out RC-11 hopefully things will work better for you.
I’ve released RC-11 to try to get more people testing as well. I’m hearing some success and others not so much. Just trying to get things worked out. I know I must be close by now.
Thing’s I’ve personally tested in regards to resizable images.

If you already installed, Please re-run the installer. I found a small issue in the approach yesterday and believe it has now been corrected for.
Let me know if it works, or doesn’t.
Thank you,

@Tom-Elliott I’m trying to go through the installer this morning and it is failing on Backing up database.

@Doctrg Can you check disk space?

@Tom-Elliott Yep, that was my issue. I’ve updated to RC12 and from what testing that I have done, it seems that everything is working. I’m able to go from a 160GB to a 256GB and also 500GB drive and boot into Windows as well. The resizing seems to be correct as well.
