@witcher just use a life image (my favourite is #grml, but many will do) and run #gparted to resize /boot. Don't forget the backup before you do that..
No need for a fresh installation, this is not #windows.
And I don't think I even did that for the machines running testing...

Migration from old 1TB NVMe to new 4TB NVMe complete. Used #clonezilla and #gparted to expand the root partition. #Debian trixie but the install goes back to at least buster.

Also took the opportunity to apply new thermal paste to the processor and blow out dust from the fans.

Everything is running fine and I didn't lose my wife's #wesnoth saves.

What does #GParted force you to measure partitions in MiB? Is this how the rest of the world feels about America's use of the Imperial system?

Hey #Linux #nerds, any idea why a #Debian server with a 64 GB main drive would report such a huge discrepancy between `df` and `du`? `df` reports 20 GB used, while `du` reports just 6 GB used. I'm trying to resize the partition and #GParted thinks that its the 20 GB used. :huh:

edit: CIFS bit me in the ass! Thanks for the replies!

Once again, #Linux betrayed me: #GnomeDiskUtility only gave me error messages when trying to create a #partition table, #GParted just froze, and #fdisk returned a success message but didn't actually do anything.

So I turned to Windows – which did the partitioning just fine without any issues. 🤐

GParted Live 1.70.8 is here! 🚀 Now with support for NBD and experimental bcachefs, but drops 32-bit—it's 64-bit only from now on. Still the go-to free partition tool for power users needing quick cloning, resizing, or migration. #Linux #OpenSource #GParted #newz

OG's partition with Gparted 🤣 ✅ 💡

GParted Live-1.7.0-8 wurde heute veröffentlicht und ist ein kostenloses Open-Source-Partitionierungsprogramm, das auf GParted basiert. Es nutzt den Linux-Kernel 6.12.37-1 und bietet experimentelle Unterstützung für das Bcachefs-Dateisystem sowie die Erkennung von Network Block Devices. Die Version verbessert die exFAT-Unterstützung und enthält neue Pakete. GParted Live-1.7.0-8 ist als ISO- und USB-Image für 64-Bit-Systeme verfügbar; 32-Bit-Systeme werden nicht mehr unterstützt.

GParted Live 1.7.0 drops 32-bit support (RIP old hardware 🪦), but the real win is better block device ordering. No more accidentally selecting the wrong disk when you have multiple drives! Following Debian's 64-bit-only path.

The adventures continue!

I run a number of computers at home, almost entirely GNU/Linux-based. As the hardware continues to age, data integrity had become more and more of a concern. I am particularly worried about sudden disk failures, and with a combination of ddrescue and timeshift I have been setting up whole-partition/whole-disk and incremental backups on critical systems.

I have also […]

Gracias por la pregunta...

Intente primero con #gparted y #ext4, pero me arrojo un error de que no podía crear la tabla de particiones y al ignorar esto, continuaba con todo el proceso, y al final (+5 minutos despues) me informaba que no había conseguido terminar el proceso

Tambien intente hacerlo directamente desde la linea de comandos usando

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc
