SSD upgrade: How to expand partition
EZGig IV transferred 16.04 to a larger SSD
cat /proc/partitions
returned:
major minor #blocks name
8 0 488386584 sda
8 1 480069371 sda1
8 5 8312352 sda5
After the new drive was installed in the PC:
df -h
indicates a 213GB partition.
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 792M 9.7M 782M 2% /run
/dev/sda1 213G 190G 12G 95% /
tmpfs 3.9G 39M 3.9G 1% /dev/shm
tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock
tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs 792M 72K 791M 1% /run/user/1000
What is the procedure to complete the upgrade to 480GB?
Would I be better of re-performing the exercise with Clonezilla? Does it automagically resize the partition?
