Auto Resize on first boot

Have been in contact with some of the guys on the Debian for x82-64 teams... and they gave me a few links and tips to attempt to prevent the resizing. They suggested the creation of dummy partitions, witch I did however the system would never get past the listing of the peripherals where it would hang? Mind you that the dummy partitions were created from a Window's device?! Unsure as to if that would make any difference. Am looking at creating an entire repository on how to set up either a x86-64 machine or RPi using Linux, from a Linux, Windows and maybe later a Mac device. That is from the downloading to the writing of the images ( have figured out how to do that using the CLI as well ) as for the reason that I am looking to partition the SD cards... am sure that you guys are aware that you can boot from an USB device... these tend to have larger capacities and as such one could increase the size of the / partitions (have already written a bash program to start with the partition tables, create partitions, mount the partitions and am currently working on cloning them as well to allow for transfer to different devices - all scripted with minimal user input) or keep them small enough to allow for updates and then move the persistent data to other partitions mounting and sharing them between the OS's or to allow for the simplified sharing of data by mounting the partitions in each of the other operating systems. have figured out how to move docker and share that data as well... Ubuntu and Raspbian have work around to prevent the resizing?! have scoured the internet and cannot find much on the topic for Debian, well at least not that has worked for me so far. Would love to hear back from you guys
