It sounds like it is worth giving a go. It will not be for a couple
of weeks though as I have things to do (other than playing with the
joggler that is). I will report when I have tried it.

Right click the partition (in gparted) and select Unmount. Don't

Just as a corollary to this, it is not necessary to format the stick
before writing it with dd. The formatting info is included in the
image. So the output file is something like sdb which is the complete
stick rather than a partition.

BECTA was championing o
one without
affecting an existing system. It is always wise to ensure backups are
up to date before embarking on this sort of operation however. One
never knows when one is going to hit the wrong key or click the wrong
partition. Also I imagine that granny tripping over the power lead in
the mid
place, so there is no need to
unmount them. There is no need to delete and re-create the
partitions, just move and resize them.
