For USB:
1)Download GParted Downloads or SystemRescueCD as in OP.
2)Use win32DiskImager to write above image on USB. If used binary zip, no need to install on system. The program is easy to use with just browse & select image file to write, USB drive to write and pressing of write button.
You’ve new steps 17(7.2-8) which I’ve not seen on other guides. I used the guide & 2TB image by Djh816. Worked perfectly even when I deleted my HD on OMV 
. I think the 2TB virgin image does format HD and create partition table itself. I’ll try next time if again manage to fugde the thing 
as not too keen to do it after 7/8 attempts in last 3 days

Note: I’d the same problem as below using 04.01.02-417 image.
This thread will be easier to look up next time for myself. Anyway thanks for posting another guide.
