I had done this before (with Mac OS X pre-Snow Leopard) and it had
worked.
Now I need to clone my Windows partition again to another computer and
it fails with "not enough space".

Using Mac OS X 10.6.1 with all the software updates from "Software
update", Winclone 2.2, with a 22 GB partition that is formatted FAT32 as
source (image creation works) to another Mac with a BootCamp created
partition, tried various sizes from 22 to 64 GB.

It always fails with the error as in
http://www.twocanoes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=4768

ie "not enough space". It does resize a larger partition, but then fails
with an image that it says is too large - but only in about the fifth
decimal, and after obviously reducing the partion's size.

The same thing happens whether I check or uncheck the "use ASR" option.
The image can be mounted ok.

What can I do? I urgently need this partition on the new Mac.
All Macs involved are Intel, MacBook Pro and MacBook.

TIA

Marc

Try "WinClone" <http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/25932/winclone>
