I created bootable USB of Fatdog64 with dd tool into 2gb USB . after booting to Fatdog64 I was not able to fix my pendrive with fix-usb.sh .
So I can't make third partition and can't make save file because of no space .
How to solve this problem ?
Please help me .......
Thanks in advance

Use gparted to see the partitions on the usb.
My understading is dd copies a file system, not makes partitions. You wont be able to partition the usb. Have you done this before?

check=$(sfdisk -uS -l $1 2>/dev/null| awk -v dev=${1}3 '$1==dev {print $6}')
case $check in
Empty) ;;
*) echo "Partition 3 of $1 (${1}3) is not empty."
echo "Aborting."
exit
esac
I have disabled exit of "paranoia check - partition 3 must be empty"
by changing
to
This has always worked for me.
