Klaus Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Hi Alexey, my problem ist quiet the same... On my Cubietruck I boot from nand-Bootpartition witch is like yours 32M and 98% full. Rootpartition is on SD. I also got the "No space left on device" - message after an apt-get upgrade...:-( I was looking around for some advice to change the size of the boot-partition but didn´t find anything. There are 8G Nandflash on Cubietruck and just 32M used - I thought, there must be a way to increase the size of the /boot... ...hope to get an answer here... (please excuse my english - it ist a little bit rusty) Klaus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Early versions of or nand-install script had this value too low (32M) ... but it's doubled since some time. You must have been using some very old build:https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/packages/bsp/common/usr/sbin/nand-sata-install#L333 I am not sure you can change this on the fly.

Klaus Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hi Igor, thanks for your fast reply! But now my problem is grown up a little... I rebootet and the system didn´t start up again. Fortunatly I still had the SD-card from where I booted before using the nand-install. Now, because acting with nand is a bit tricky for a newbie like me - is it possible, to boot from SD and use the rootfs on SSD by editing the boot.cmd and compiling it like posted from you in I have openhab2 installed on rootfs and it worked great since yesterday - I don´t want to set it all up again. thanks in advance Klaus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hi Igor, I boldly tried to change the boot.cmd, the armbianEnv.txt and finaly etc/fstab - and it worked. I now use the mmc-card to boot und the rootfs from /deb/sda1. Thanks for guidance! Klaus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. Hi! I've got the same problem and my solution was: # umount /boot # ls -lh /boot ... returned empty folder result ... # mount /dev/nand1 /mnt # cp -rp /mnt/* /boot # nano /etc/fstab ... comment string #/dev/nand1 /boot vfat defaults 0 0 # reboot ... then # apt update # apt upgrade Regards, Yuri Edited August 2, 2018 by ymf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
