DietPi-Imager | Allow entering a path for the target image #6147

Open DrCWO opened 1 year ago

DrCWO commented 1 year ago

Just a short question: Is there a chance to write a created image with dietpi-imager on a separate drive?

I mounted the external drive (/dev/sdb1) to /mnt1 and entered /mnt1/backup as destination. Backup source is /sda. But dietpi-imager says that there is not enough space???

Support would be appreciated. Best DrCWO

entered /mnt1/backup as destination

The image name is not meant to be a path but a filename only, at least it is handled like that. The image will always be created within the current directory, at least this is assumed. So navigate there first:

/mnt1

However, I checked and indeed when you enter an actual path, aside of the free space check, it should work mostly as intended. If the archive is created, it will probably have the directories added as well, though. I'll verify it and adjust the description in the menu. Easiest to assure that all happens as intended is probably to strip the path from the input and cd to it.

DrCWO commented 1 year ago

Just some feedback for your information. My external drive I mounted on /mnt1 was a NTFS USB stick.

I did cd to /mnt1 and started from there --> Did not work, a lot of continuous error messages probably caused by NTFS

MichaIng commented 1 year ago

Can you paste the exact errors?

DrCWO commented 1 year ago

I would if I could but I am in the middle of building a new release and don't want to get back to this step. Will do it later...

This is what happens until I press CTRL-C and I pressed quick ;-)

Looks like the NTFS drive is mounted read-only, and likely also the ntfs-3g driver for UNIX permissions emulation is not installed, respectively the drive is not mounted with emulated permissions. Did you mount it via dietpi-drive_manager? Else

apt install ntfs-3g

Then add permissions as another mount option.

It doesn't solve your issue, since you need to write to this drive anyway, but the resize2fs output is now stored to /tmp instead of the current directory, so you do not end up in a loop here: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/commit/fc81aa1
