#gparted

My experience with #FlashDrives recently has been mixed. I have no problem in encrypting them with #LUKS, using #cryptsetup or with formatting a partition with #Btrfs, for instance, using #gparted and doing other tinkering with #Gnome #disks. But the problem has been with the actual drives themselves. The cheaper ones seem to have quite a few bad sectors, etc. and so they’re not really reliable for medium term storage.

Ай нид хэлп. В ноуте была двойная загрузка: винда и #fedora. Удалил винду через #gparted. Но не могу объединить раздел, где была винда и раздел home с федорой. Нагуглил только одну подробную инструкцию на русском. Описанный способ объединения томов у меня не работает. Может, у кого-то был такой опыт?) Буду признателен за помощь. itshaman.ru/articles/1930/kak-

Me han dado la tarea de borrar los discos duros de 4 PCs

Con un pendrive + #Linux #Live arranco

Uso #gparted para eliminar las particiones

Y con

$ sudo shred -vfz -n 10 /dev/sdX

"trituro" todo lo que pudieran contener los discos, rellenando los espacios con números

Ya voy en el 3er disco y ya me he consumido mas de 5 horas

¡Que tedioso!

You can download a live image of gparted and work with the latest version with ease. My debian based distro has GParted 1.3.1 which is quite behind v1.7.0-1

Im downloading the latest right now!

Giving credit to the programmers of GPARTED(8)

gparted works its magic, by entering correct parameters to a suite of partition control & editing commands, which are sh envoked, so you can easily manipulate your partitions on all your SSDs HDDs from the comfort of your UI

When you want to batch manipulate partitions, you can study the log output and make sh scripts yourself, controlling partitions anywhere.
You also have the convenience of running gparted from sh so it still works its magic for you, without the UI!

I usually run cfdisk gdisk fdisk when I partition a fresh mechanical or SSD, later on I invoke gparted when I want to resize or move them

it also runs important commands at the end so that the kernel gets to know your new partition layout, which makes rebooting your machine to use them unneeded

I shrunk and resized a partition where I installed a program, which needed 75GB (*1024!) as installation space but only uses 56GB in the end. I left 12GB of breathing room on the partition after the shrink and of course grew the partition before with the same size, minus the alignment snip of 1MB

This puppy, a "filthy" #JMicron bridge (wich doesn't support readily available SMART reports - afaik), is my new #Ventoy / #Medicat storage!

I just dd-cloned my 128G USB stick, moved and resized the boot&storage partition, with #Gparted.

It semi-failed! I had to plug it into a Windows 10(pro) machine, let Windows complain & "repair" the NTFS partition.

All fine, biz as usual, since! 😅 👍

Despues de reiniciar, el muy querido #grub me volvia a mostrar las entradas de #UbuntuBudgie y ahora el flamante #RebornOSBudgie

Despues llego la tradicional personalizacion, (des)instalacion de Apps, etc Dentro de las novedades agradables de esta distro es que ya viene lista preparada para el uso de #AppImage, asi que por este lado pude colocar a punto mis apps preferidas

Ahora creo haber descubierto la razon del "problema" de instalacion... al mirar el disco a traves de #gParted y descubrir que parece ser que me equivoque en un detallazo: En vez de crear una particion de 8MiB "sin formatear" parece que deberia haber dejado los 8 MiB simplemente "sin asignar"

Mas se você fez merda e ai?

O segredo é sempre ter um pendrive de uns 16 ou 32 gb com o #ventoy configurado
ventoy.net/en/index.html

Esse carinha te ajuda a ter um pendrive bootavél que é pau pa toda obra, permitindo n ter um , mais vários init points.

E usando o #ventoy vc pode ter uma ferramenta pra recuperar discos, tô falando dele o #gparted que tem uma forma de ser usado em live USB
gparted.org/livecd.php

Dai vc consegue checar discos e arquivos.

Por fim tenha um liveCD de uma distro de confiança, no meu caso é sempre a LTS do #debian com live do #xfce (se liga no link de download jovem padawan)
debian.org/CD/live/

Ou usa o #linuxmint essas duas bunca me deixaram na mão na hora de recuperar sistema.

Ah e a dica de ouro pra quem usa #linux.

Sempre mantenha partição home separada da root, se puder em discos físicos diferentes, esse ano mesmo eu já mandei meu root com debian pelos ares umas 3 vezes, mas nada que um clean install mantendo a home não resolva.

www.ventoy.netVentoyVentoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO files. With ventoy, you don't need to format the disk again and again, you just need to copy the iso file to the USB drive and boot it.
