Units can be other than sectors, like size, see the reduce example here. I don't know if you define the end sector or sectors from the start, I guess the latter.thanasisp– thanasisp2022-05-06 12:38:18 +00:00Commented May 6, 2022 at 12:38

@thanasisp have a look at the man page (man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/sfdisk.8.html), the unit option is deprecated and states that only sector is accepted. I don't think it's clear, if is just the unit option that is deprecated or the whole usage of the size inside the commands. Anyway I was not able to resize correctly until i moved to the sector size. For the end sector yes, it's the number of sectors from the start (i'll modify the answer)ErniBrown– ErniBrown2022-05-06 12:46:12 +00:00Commented May 6, 2022 at 12:46

If that worked for you, then it seems good (also there was a trailing comma into the question, I am sure you tried some size without it).thanasisp– thanasisp2022-05-06 13:07:29 +00:00Commented May 6, 2022 at 13:07

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
