I’ll definitely test it. Thanks for all your hard work guys. I’ll let you know when I’m back at work on Monday :). Have a great weekend!

Sorry. Had a long weekend! Hope everyone had a great weekend! I’ll keep an eye on this thread if this is where you’ll update us on how things go. Thanks!

@Sebastian-Roth And if you can’t, it’s not the end of the world I’m sure but you might want to add it to the wiki on how to do this so you don’t have a bunch of posts regarding this. I only need to do it to maybe 10 images. The rest are desktops with the general Windows partitions. I just imaged a desktop and it flew right through it without any edits.

@Sebastian-Roth But I’m assuming that’s where a lot of laptops have been going these days. Granted most still come with recovery media but they have that extra partition primarily for factory resets. The thing I’m going to love about fog is if that hard drive took a crap I have a “factory reset” on the fog server so I don’t have to purchase the media.

@Sebastian-Roth Sorry for the late response. These came from Panasonic. The 3rd partition is the system recovery partition so we are able to restore to factory settings. Also has 64 and 32-bit of the OS in it. They don’t send out recovery media at all. Kind of sucks. We spend like $3,000 a piece on these and we can’t even get $5 jump drive with the recovery media on it without requesting to get one for a small fee.

@Sebastian-Roth Setting the image to 1:2 worked like a charm. Loaded up windows just fine after it finished. Will I need to do that with every image or is that something on your end you can do? I don’t mind if I have to edit it manually for each one.

I changed that file to 1:2 and so far it went on to the next process. So I’m farther than I was. I’ll let you know once it’s finished if it’s all good to go.

Sorry. Had to put out some fires, haha. So far I got this part done. I’ll do the other thing after I put out another fire.

@Sebastian-Roth Ok I’ll give that a shot.

@Junkhacker Alright. I can do that. I’ll give you all an update once I’ve done that.

Maybe it will work if I just remove the 24gb partition? I’ll wait on what you all have to say :).

@Quazz Actually I was wrong with one of the partitions. It’s a 24gb partition but has nothing in it. Only dedicated to recovery I guess. Here’s what that drive has in total.

24GB partition 100% free space
300MB partition 100% free space
441GB partition 95% free space

So all in all it’s only really has like 20GB total being used.

@Wayne-Workman Oh, I don’t plan to. I’ll still be looking at things on my end to see if anything pops out at me. I’m just hoping it’s not because of that one partition that has the windows image itself on it. Haha.

Caught it. Seems like the first process went through but when it started with the second I get this.

Maybe resizing just isn’t going to work with this unless I have some 512GB SSDs? think there are technically 3 partitions. Maybe that’s what the mess is. I don’t think it cared about the 100meg partition that windows creates but I think these toughbooks have an image of Windows storage in another one too so if I wanted to format I don’t need a disc/usb.

I just feel like I didn’t have this problem before when I did the same process.

@Wayne-Workman Ok sounds good. I’ll try to catch it. It happens pretty quick. Haha.

@Wayne-Workman Haha. I’m a linux noob so I’m relying heavily on the fog wiki. I have it up-to-date now and rerunning the capture. Then I’ll deploy to the new SSD. If it still doesn’t work not sure what I may be doing wrong or if it’s just a toughbook issue. I’ll get back to you either way.

YOu’re dealing with a moron. I ran the SVN earlier today but didn’t bother doing the ./installfog.sh . Wow. Well since you confirmed that resizing is working with this build I’ll give it a shot once it’s done installing. Sorry guys.

Oh, I think the most up to date is in GIT. I never set that up yet. I can do that and see what happens. Off to the fog wiki!

I don’t think I can get 7591 just yet can I? I’ll try to SVN.

Well, I tried looking for /var/log/partclone.log but doesn’t exist. Hmm.
