This creates an EXACT duplicate of your ENTIRE HD, the boot, OS X, and BootCamp/Windows partitions, and it worked flawlessly for me.This will take a few hours to run depending on your HD size. Go ahead and start Clonezilla and be sure to choose the source and target HDs properly and choose device-to-device and HD-to-HD for copying. After you have burned Clonezilla, attach your new HD to your computer somehow (I used USB) and then fire up Clonezilla and run it taking all the default options until you get to the “Start_Clonezilla Start Clonezilla” menu option.Clonezilla is the ONLY solution (and believe me, I tried many, including Paragon’s pay-for solution, CampTune, that proved useless) I have found that will accurately copy/clone and/or resize both the BootCamp/Windows AND the OS X partitions accurately (I know it runs partclone and some other stuff, but it’s got a “wizard” ). Next, I download Clonezilla’s bootable ISO and burned it to a CD and booted it.This is similar to a chkdsk /f on Windows.

Second, you’ll want to boot from the OS X install DVD and run DiskUtil and do a “Repair” (hold down the Option key, it changes the buttons at the top and “Repair” becomes available) on your OS X partition.

It will have to reboot as it won’t be able to lock the drive while it’s in use.

First of all, make sure to run a “chkdsk /f” from the command line in your (BootCamp) Windows partition.

I’m going to outline the process that I did to get this to work (you’ll need both the Windows 7 and Mac OS X install DVDs, not to mention a couple of blank CDs to burn): Not TrueImage, DiskDirector, Cop圜atX, VolumeWorks, CampTune, or GParted (or any combination of those that I tried) worked for this. This apparently is not nearly as straight-forward as it probably should be, unfortunately.

I hope this is helpful to someone other than me, as nothing I tried that I found via online searching worked. Below is my multi-day adventure into cloning my (BootCamped) Mac’s HD onto a larger HD.
