Sorry, I want to split a single file image into lets say 5 can you tell me the command line? I used -r "image" -t 3 "newname" but I get a :Failed to convert disk: An error occurred while writing a file; the disk is full. Data has not been saved. Free some disk space and try again (0x8). Disk space is enough for the new image
