Hi David,
Well, my / is 25G however the image that gets produced is 400G.
The 400G is that actual size of my entire disk but I only have a 25G
partition defined, the rest of the drive is blank other then for a small
swap partition.
We completely need a way to manipulate disk images - eg. resize LVM
partitions, read out data from filesystems nested inside partitions
inside LVM, etc etc. In other words, a non-broken gparted.
virt-df has much of the machinery required to do this.
Turn it into a library, package it up ... If only I had the time.
