I was cloning a hard drive and got the following error:
I knew I did not need the GPT partition so I did the following to delete the GPT partition table:
Boot the Clonezilla program and select Shell
I ran the following command to locate my hard drive:
sudo fdisk -l
I can see that my disk is /dev/sda so I then ran this command to start the program:
sudo gdisk /dev/sda
This will then come back with a partition table scan similar to my pic example. I want to keep the MBR partition so type 1 to select option 1
I had to do that two before I got to the following screen for some reason. I then entered option x
The expert command to enter is z then press enter. Type y and press enter to wipe out GPT
NEXT YOU WANT ENTER N FOR NO!! We do NOT want to blank out the MBR because we want to keep it. Type n and press enter
The output should then look like so:
I then did the clone again. At first I had trouble but after I formatted my DESTINATION drive so it was unformatted and empty the clone was successful!!
The new clone drive had trouble booting though so I will make a post on what I did to fix the boot partition. Those instructions are here:
