But, Macs can't resize Fat32 partitions on the fly with the built-in diskutil (or disk utility front end).

Maybe this would help?

I think you already said this wouldn't work but it talks about FAT32 in that article so maybe. but that article is 11 years old so maybe not, I honestly have no clue how this stuff works.

thanks for your explanation of cloning though, I'm on a mac so I was wondering this myself.

edit: nevermind, didn't see this at the bottom of that article:

You cannot resize FAT32 partitions with the diskutil resizeVolume command.
