Ted backing up existing Raspberry Pi 2 Debian system image, which entails a vfat parition and a root file system partition formatted as type ext4. Utility cfdisk shows . . .

Create new partition from free space
Now looking to desktop PC (host system) disks for empty partitions, may be a couple unused on the hard disk holding Linux From Scratch book 8.1 work. Ted shrinking formatted 60GB /var from LFS project, shrinking this partition down to about 50GB. Ted now noting what is on the 43MB boot partition of the microSD card from Raspberry Pi 2 board on hand . . .
