Test builds here (thanks Richard):

Did some quick testing and found two small issues:

- The bootable flag is not copied to the new image
- The first partition starts at sector 64, while the source image starts
at 63. (Not really an issue, though)

Other than that, it works :)


$ virt-resize --resize /dev/sda1=100% fedora-12-kvm.img out.img
Summary of changes:
/dev/sda1: partition will be left alone
There is a surplus of 853037568 bytes (813.5M).
An extra partition will be created for the surplus.
Copying /dev/sda1 ...done

$ sfdisk -d fedora-12-kvm.img out.img
# partition table of fedora-12-kvm.img
unit: sectors

fedora-12-kvm.img1 : start=       63, size=  4192902, Id=83, bootable
fedora-12-kvm.img2 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
fedora-12-kvm.img3 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
fedora-12-kvm.img4 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
# partition table of out.img
unit: sectors

out.img1 : start=       64, size=  4192902, Id=83
out.img2 : start=  4193024, size=  1666287, Id=83
out.img3 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
out.img4 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
