- By default, when flashed from U-Boot, rootfs and boot are only occupying the size of the .ext4 images used during flashing. If you want to increase the rootfs/boot size to all available free space then, after Linux has booted, use the following commands:
# resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2 # for Rootfs
- Or with apf-config command:
# apf-config
| 1 Expand Filesystem(s) OS can then use all eMMC/SD space |
Rootfs/Boot will then be extended to all the "Rootfs"/"Boot" eMMC partitions space.
Tips
- Commands to partition User Data from fdisk on Host PC with U-Boot UMS. Check /dev/sdc is the eMMC of your OPOS93 device otherwise you may destroy your PC partition table !!!:
$ sudo echo -e 'size=512MiB,type=0x83\nsize=512MiB,type=0x83\ntype=0x83' | sfdisk /dev/sdc
$ sudo mkfs.ext4 -O ^64bit,^metadata_csum,uninit_bg /dev/sdc1
$ sudo mkfs.ext4 -O ^64bit,^metadata_csum,uninit_bg /dev/sdc2
$ sudo mkfs.ext4 -O ^64bit,^metadata_csum,uninit_bg /dev/sdc3
