RE: Disk size

Expect to loose some size due to journal...

I have just restored a partition using partimage, the restore reported to be
the size of the image and not the partition. See link.

http://www.partimage.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=275&highlight=resize2fs

Technique solved the problem.

Hope it helps,
eddie
