Hi all,
I recently bought a new hard drive, larger than my old one. I thought I'd be smart, and copied partitions using dd:
dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sdb1
I noticed today that there is something wrong with the size remaining on the new drive, and after reading a bit, it looks like I should have used some specific option to prevent it from truncating my new disk.
Does anyone know how I can recover the remaining space on my hard drive ?
Thanks !

Using (g)parted from a livecd?

Can you nuke the new disk, manually partition, then rsync -avxhP /path/to/old/ /path/to/new/
CPU-optimized Linux-ck packages @ Repo-ck • AUR packages • Zsh and other configs

I have tried KDE's partitionmanager before, but could not find something that would do it. Will try with gparted if there is something in there.

Will try after gparted if it doesn't work
Thanks to both of you
