Hello,

I cloned my HD, using clonzilla, to a 1 TB drive however once the OS boots up (OpenSuse 11.2) the partitions aren't correct.

For example, Yast shows 624 GB for /dev/sda4;

/dev/sda │931.51 GB│ │ │WDC-WD1002FBYS-0│ │
│ ├──Volume Management ││/dev/sda1 │298.14 GB│ │ │HPFS/NTFS │NTF│

│ ├──Device Mapper ││/dev/sda3 │ 9.00 GB│ │ │Linux swap │Swa│
│ ├──NFS ││/dev/sda4 │624.20 GB│ │ │Linux native │XFS│

However, df-h shows, 359 GB, the original disk size prior to cloning;

df -h /
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda4 359G 356G 3.5G 100% /

Parted shows;

Any suggestion how to fix this? I keep running out of disk space.

Many thanks in advance,

Did you clone directly to the new drive or create an image which you
then restored to the new drive?
