I have a Windows machine, and it's OS is alongside with the a few more partitions on one hard drive.
I want to use Ubuntu live cd, in Order to copy that OS drive to another, bigger hard drive and utilize that space.
I managed to copy the drive using ddrescue and it works fine, but then I have a lot of un utilized space on the new bigger drive.
I would like to os partition To use all the extra space
I tried to copy the partitions using Gparted and resize the OS partition, the system did not boot afterwords
I tried to use ddrescue to copy the drive, and then Gparted to change the partition's size, But it's not the last partition on the disk, so I could not, When I tried to resize the other later partitions and then "make room" for that partition and then resizing it, the machine did not boot afterwords.
How can I copy the drive, and keep it bootable, allowing one partition use all the extra space I have on the larger disk?
Thanks
