Description

For disk based images, allow to resize the image to a new disk geometry. The additional space is free and not in use by the image. The OEM boot code in KIWI NG offers a resizing procedure that can be used to make use of the additional free space. For OEM image builds, it is advisable to run the resizing operation.

Options

--root=<directory>

The path to the root directory. If not specified, kiwi searches the root directory in build/image-root under the specified target directory.

--size=<size>

New size of the image. The value is either a size in bytes, or it can be specified with m (MB) or g (GB). Example: 20g

--target-dir=<directory>

Directory containing the kiwi build results.
