jwarder 0 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Hi, I'm using the debian jessie v2.9 image, I've mistakenly used an 8GB SD card and setup my system now, I would like to move this to a larger SD card, I can DD the image to a new card, is there boot scripts that I can force to re-run to resize the partions? Thanks, Jack Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor 2301 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 You can do it this way: First do a copy to larger image, than execute those commands manually to expand to whole space: fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 d ENTER # delete 1 ENTER # partition 1 which is the only one n ENTER # create new p ENTER # primary ENTER # default number is 1 ENTER # default start ENTER # default end w ENTER # write to disk reboot # when system gets back resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBM 1 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Got to love how any question I have is already answered – and most concisely so. Running a very happy Cubox homeserver now (LEMP, ProFTPd, Samba, Owncloud, Rsync). Thank you for maintaining Armbian while entertaining user questions at the same time – I made a small donation today. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
