Hi, I'd like to be able to build an SD card image, deploy to a system and have it automatically resize on first boot. I haven't seen functionality that would do this in Yocto. If there is a setting for this could anybody let me know where that is?
Alternatively if this isn't supported out of the box I was thinking of adding something, say as a recipe with a post installation task that ran fdisk, then resizee2fs then either remounted the root f/s if possible or alternatively rebooted. I have had a look at this and in a manual hand-rolled way it seems to work fine. That said, e2fsprogs doesn't seem to package resize2fs but I have a small patch to enable that. The next problem is that I can automate fdisk with a pipe but when I delete a partition and create it the default is to start at 1, overlapping the existing DOS partition that I have on my i.MX6 SD card images. Odd as I am sure this is different behaviour from what I'd expect from fdisk on a desktop. I'd have to do some parsing of the existing partition sizes I guess which I would rather avoid for simplicity if possible. If anybody could let me know if this has been done so is a waste of my time, or if there's a better way to achieve this I'd be grateful. Thanks, Alex -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
