Hello, I see no attachment?
And do you mean GParted Live ?
I'd be using parted btw to create such a script, not gparted (graphical). For batch files, command-line parted would be better.
Your help has saved me hundreds of hours of internet surfing.

Who told you it needs to be gpt instead of mbr?

Thanks, this is a golden way for two live HDD or raids but in my case this method simply does not work because there is no HDD to copy from the Gpt partition layout

Then you could create one 'sample' machine and create the initial layout for copying.
You are about to run this on a bunch of machines, right?

I tried to backup the partition table and restore using the following:
To backup I used:
# parted -ms /dev/sda print > sda.parted
Restore:
#sgdisk -R=/dev/sdb sda.parted
But I get warnings/errors : file size is not multiple of 512 bytes! Misbehavior is likely!
Error 25; strange behavior
Also there is another option like sgdisk -l -w.
Any help appreciated.
