I resumed since I finally found free time. I decided to do an image from
scratch since people told me to do that instead, but it looks like I run
out of disk space on the destination external USB2 HDD. This probably
why it failed from partition to partition too last weekend. The original
data used is about 30 GB. Why would it need to fill up the whole drive?

Isn't 70 GB free enough for this? How much disk space do I really need
for this? This is sure frustrating. :(
