Hello 

 

I would like to know if it is possible to have 2 partions on the emmc.

Indeed My emmc have 256go for only the os armbian with OMV (2.5go only used).

 

I would like to have for example a boot partition with size of 50go and an other partition for my data (200go).

 

However when I use armbian-config the full emmc is formated.

 

If a solution exist could you please share with me the solution.

 

Thanks in advance for your support.

I almost never use armbian-config, so don't know if it has options to limit partitions sizes, I think there are, but you will have to look in the script  how things are done.

 

But you can boot from SD-card with another independent Armbian installation and from there run a partitions program on the eMMC. Gparted I would say, it should allow you to shrink/resize existing partition and filesystem. An add an extra 1 or more. I usually use gdisk or fdisk/sfdisk via serial console (CLI) and Btrfs as filesystem (not Ext4), so cannot really tell how parted works, but what you want is possible, up to 128 partitions if you want.
