I've got a 285GB drive that I want to clone to a 256GB SSD drive. The larger source has 2 partitions which I've shrunk the 1st main partition down so the total size of both partition will fit. But the 2nd partition if restored in the same location would extend beyond the 256GB size. There is a large gap between part 1 and 2. The 2nd part is the boot part. Will Clonzilla remove the gap or will it mess up if I use the -icds option? What about the -k1 option (create the partition table proportionally) but that seems only for going to larger disks. Or could I restore each partition one at a time? I've made a disk image so far.

I guess I could use gparted to "move" the part but in my experience gparted corrupts NTFS drives 50% of the time.

Thanks
