#gparted — Public Fediverse posts

#Ventoy ist eigentlich die Sache, um #linux Live zu starten. Ich hab da ein gutes Dutzend Distris drauf. Von #clonezille, #systemrescue, #gparted und so paar Desktop Systeme wie #linuxmint #endeavouros oder #mxlinux für verschiedene Zwecke.
Heute bin ich über https://distrosea.com #distrosea gestolpert. Ok, die eigene Hardware kann man nicht testen und das Netzwerk ist auch deaktiviert.
Aber man kann im Browser so einiges ansehen und probieren - ohne das System neu zu starten. 👍 cool!

I lost about a year in personal recordings, owing to a bad M.2 SSD backup drive with no secondary backup. 😮‍💨 So I'm on a rampage of backups. I've made a rather startling discovery - that on an SD card of mine, #BTRFS can save data about twice as fast as EXT4, on the same drive (Sandisk Ultra)! This is with a somewhat recent #Linux kernel of 6.12.75, on a #RaspberryPi 5. 🤷 I'm accustomed to EXT4 being the clearly faster one (and has no scrubbing, or snapshotting functionality, BTW).

Pictured: #gparted copies a partition's data at a decent 40MB/sec; decent when the target drive is a MicroSD card! The write speed ("Current DISK WRITE") is shown by iotop in a terminal in the background.

@bekopharm Using #gparted live-cd I have successfully resized the boot partition on other machines by shrinking and moving the other ones. But I’ll keep this test VM with this /boot size, just for the fun of it 😜

#linux question

I have removable #usb drives. When I plugged them in originally, #xfce showed them on the desktop using names like "Cool Drives Inc"

It was formatted ntfs. I deleted the partition and made a new one *with a label*. I also formatted to ext4.

xfce now shows them as "2.0 TB Volume".

Where was it getting that old label/name and why doesn't it read my new label/name?

WHAT TEXT DO I HAVE TO EDIT TO MAKE THIS WORK HOW I WANT

It *has* to be something accessible to #gparted, since that's how I obliterated the old text.

I shouldn't need compute this on the fly with udev or whatever.

@tokyo_0 I use Gparted live for this running off of a usb stick. That way neither the source nor destination disc is in use at the time of copying.

You can use the Gparted GUI to copy/paste partitions from the source drive to the destination.

Other tools I have used to copy disc images are dd under Linux (cli) and the Raspberry Pi "SD card copier". The latter is misnamed as it can copy to and from any type of media SSD/SD card etc.

Progress... #Guix installed with #Gnome because it makes administration easier. used #gparted to partition the second ssd, and then add a partition to the / btrfs and rebalance converting it to raid1.

next guix pull... when thats done adding bcache-tools and cryptsetup. Then the giant spinning hard drives will be bcached, and the bcache will be turned into encrypted filesystems. i actually have no idea how to get guix to mount the filesystem's using a cleartext key on a partition

Bei Änderungen an Parititionen ist es unbedings empfehlenswert, vorher eine Sicherung der Festplatte oder Partition anzufertigen.
