Error during pishrink retropie image help please ASAP

jmorris

HELP!!!!! I have tried to pishrink using both mint and ubuntu in virtualbox. I have the image and pishrink in the folder. When I execute the pishrink I get the following. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am trying to clone my retropie for christmas present. Here is a link to the error I get. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0SRkuIygXh0T1ZJRnJJMDFwRTFJaE4zZXFqdmo0bUY5WW44

can't access the link to your error, it says "You need permission"

Should be fixed now. Try to view it now.

@jmorris Is this a single OS installation or you have more than 2 partitions on the SD card ?
The error seems to indicate that the script cannot find a valid linux filesystem on the 2nd partition. What's the output of the command below ?

parted -m 32GBpi.img unit B print

I am new to this so if you can tell me how to check that I will. I purchased this retropie already setup and now I am trying to make a copy of it for friend.

I just did - run the command in my previous post.

I purchased this retropie already setup

Forum rules - no support for 3rd party images, there are too many differences in configuration and customizations between the RetroPie provided image and these images. Not too mention you got scammed, since selling systems with RetroPie is against the RetroPie license.

ok thanks

@mitu running the command you said, this is the output:

(I don't know how to use the forum editor to make this code looks like yours, with black background)
