Truncate empty space from a raw dd image

https://superuser.com/questions/958812/truncate-empy-space-from-a-raw-dd-image

Check for sector sizes:

sudo fdisk -l '/home/user/images/test.img'

Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x00070424

Device                      Boot Start     End Sectors  Size Id Type
/home/user/images/test.img1 *     2048   26623   24576   12M  e W95 FAT16
/home/user/images/test.img2      26624 7200767 7174144  3,4G 83 Linux
Use end number (7200767) as reference add 1 and * 512 like below:

sudo truncate --size=$[(7200767+1)*512] '/home/user/images/test.img'
Your file should be truncated

Opposite process:
