DESCRIPTION

       For disk based images, allow to resize the image to a new disk geometry. The additional space is free and
       not  in  use  by  the image. The OEM boot code in KIWI NG offers a resizing procedure that can be used to
       make use of the additional free space. For OEM  image  builds,  it  is  advisable  to  run  the  resizing
       operation.

OPTIONS

       --root=<directory>
              The  path  to  the  root  directory.  If  not  specified,  kiwi  searches  the  root  directory in
              build/image-root under the specified target directory.

       --size=<size>
              New size of the image. The value is either a size in bytes, or it can be specified with m (MB)  or
              g (GB). Example: 20g

       --target-dir=<directory>
              Directory containing the kiwi build results.
