Cloning Partition Maps with sfdisk Revision as of Wednesday, 26 June 2024 at 10:57 UTC
This is so elegant, it makes me want to hug a penguin.
sfdisk -d /dev/hda | sfdisk /dev/hdb
This will clone the partition map from /dev/hda
to /dev/hdb
. I
usually use fdisk
(or parted
) to clear all partitions first.
