Carrying on from a question regarding hard drive space on a cloned hard drive, i'm attempting to recover the space using CloneZilla and using the setting -k1, create partition table proportionally. I'm getting errors which stop me from completing the clone:
/tmp/ocs_onthefly_local.KhmwWk/tgt_pt.parted was not found! It is
required so that we know the original disk size! Maybe your Clonezilla
image is too old? You can try to create such a file in your source
machine by: "parted -s /dev/ unit s print >
/tmp/ocs_onthefly_local.KhmwWk/tgt_pt.parted" (Replace with your
device name) Program terminated!!
That is then followed by:
Do you want to clone the boot loader (executable code area, the first
446 bytes) to: sdc? y/n
I press 'y' and proceed and the cloning process begins. After a while it completes but when I go to boot from the new clone i get
No boot sector found on internal drive
I'd like to be able to resolve this issue but if there's an easier way to recover my hard drive space that'd be all the better.

Clonezilla wrote the partition table to the wrong file: It uses tgt-pt.parted instead of tgt_pt.parted SO it can't find the file.
