I have armbian installed on a 128gb sd card but it looks to be partitioned to about 2gb. How would I go about expanding the partition to include the rest of the 126gb?

Usually the filesystem expands itself across the whole sdcard on first boot...odd.

That was my thought as well, odd.

 

@Jedge  Can you reproduce the problem?  As Werner stated, on first boot the filesystem on the SD card is supposed to be expanded to take up the entire card.  Do you have smaller SD cards you could try, curious if the card size is triggering an issue.

Actually its quite easy to reproduce and already fixed for next release. The problem is caused by sprdwl_ng module aka uwe5622 wifi driver. For some reasons, It creates problem for cpufreq-dt when its loaded pretty early during boot process like using /etc/modules. This causes cpufreq-dt to crash and any attempt to check information about cpu like running lscpu simply hangs. I remember seeing that resize service also does some checks related to cpu and hangs when cpufreq-dt crashes.

 

If possible, Use images from the nightly/ rolling releases section of the Download page. They will work fine.
