check the size with "du -h" ? Depending on how you made the image depends on how you get the result, and DD will write the zeros out too, and not be expanding. (as far as I found out) There are many p2v options out there. But the easiest way would be to plug in your HDD to the system, and then use parted (or gparted) to copy the partitions to the img file. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
