I have it working on an external 8GB card on a nokia 810. I have a few questions, File Manager show 474.8 MB total size and 8 kB in use after OS cloning. Why is this? Is the rest in another partition? Why is it not visible in File Manager? What do I have to do? vjktm Hi,

Thank you very much for this useful deb. I have it working on an external 8GB card on a nokia 810.

I have a few questions, File Manager show 474.8 MB total size and 8 kB in use after OS cloning. Why is this? Is the rest in another partition? Why is it not visible in File Manager? What do I have to do?

I have been looking all over the web to find a way to do this. Being a newbie to Linux, scripts didn´t serve me much. Your program and explanation solved my problem. No more running out of disk space for a long time. Thanks! Awesome!. I have been looking all over the web to find a way to do this. Being a newbie to Linux, scripts didn´t serve me much.

Just thought I'd mention something I beat my head against all day today. I installed a bunch of programs on my flash that I wanted to clone, left enough free space for the process, and proceeded to try and clone, I kept getting an error and Application Manager was unhelpful, tried again in Xterm with dpkg -i and noticed I got a lot of xargs errors, well apparently the "full featured" find-utils-xargs available from one of the repos on Gronmayer's site prevents your install scripts from working. I haven't narrowed down the exact cause (bad symlink or whatnot) but uninstalling that package did alloow me to proceed freely and get it installed and cloned. A question as well, could you post up on the backup/recovery method you mentioned in one of your posts on the cloning process? I ran into a case where my boot menu stopped booting to the SD and it would have been nice to have been able to recover my settings intact after a reflash/reclone. Rsync/ssh/ftp or a physical PC with cardreader the best way? Hi Penguinbait, thanks for the awesome deb. Just thought I’d mention something I beat my head against all day today.

But because '/usr/sbin' where 'chroot' command is found is not in my root's default search path (I'm using rootsh app), so I have to prefix the command with /usr/sbin. The full command becomes: /usr/sbin/chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool –set-root-device ask:mmc2 (for partition 2 on internal memory card) Thanks! I got it working.
