如何在GNU / Linux中移动分区？

如何将分区稍微移到磁盘的开头？Parted出于某种原因想要一个文件系统（我不知道为什么），我只想将所有扇区都向左移动...

WARNING: you are attempting to use parted to operate on (move) a file system.
parted's file system manipulation code is not as robust as what you'll find in
dedicated, file-system-specific packages like e2fsprogs.  We recommend
you use parted only to manipulate partition tables, whenever possible.
Support for performing most operations on most types of file systems
will be removed in an upcoming release.
Error: Could not detect file system.   

sfdisk旨在成为可编写脚本的fdisk，自某个版本开始提供了该--move-data选项。他们的手册页中的示例：

echo '+100M,' | sfdisk --move-data /dev/sdc -N 1

dd和fdisk的手动方式：

# fdisk -l /dev/sdb | grep sdb3
/dev/sdb3        73402368  1953525167   940061400   83  Linux

# fdisk /dev/sdb
Command (m for help): d
Partition number (1-4): 3
Command (m for help): n

Last sector, +sectors or +size{K,M,G} (73385984-1953525167, default 1953525167):

The partition table has been altered!

# fdisk -l /dev/sdb | grep sdb3
/dev/sdb3        73385984  1953525167   940069592   83  Linux

# dd conv=notrunc bs=512 iflag=fullblock if=/dev/sdb3 count=100 skip=$((73402368-73385984)) seek=0 2> /dev/null | file -s -
/dev/stdin: LUKS encrypted file, ver 1 [aes, cbc-essiv:sha256, sha1] UUID: af1c47f0-4ca5-4ea7-a091-065bd263653f

# dd conv=notrunc bs=512 iflag=fullblock if=/dev/sdb3  skip=$((73402368-73385984)) seek=0 of=/dev/sdb3

# file -s /dev/sdb3

现在等待约2小时。（更多看起来更像是18小时...）

注意：这只会将数据移回，而不会向前移。

暂停中：

# pidof dd
907
# kill -STOP 907
# cat /proc/907/fdinfo/1
pos:    586921398272
flags:  0100001

# kill -9 907

remember 586921398272/512 = 1146330856

恢复：

dd conv=notrunc bs=512 iflag=fullblock if=/dev/sdb3  skip=$((1146330856+73402368-73385984)) seek=1146330856 of=/dev/sdb3

您可以随时使用dd。

• 从liveCD引导（或确保分区未安装的任何其他方式）
• dd if=/dev/sdc2 of=somefile bs=1M 在文件上创建分区的副本。
• fdisk（或您喜欢的任何文件）删除分区
• fdisk（或您喜欢的任何文件）在所需位置创建分区。
• dd of=/dev/sdc2 if=somefile bs=1M 从文件还原内容。
