Eh? The only commonly used filesystem that doesn't support online growing is vfat (and it's used only because of @#$$%^&* Windows and @#$%^&* EFI). Legacy filesystems like ext4 also allow growing only (no shrinking) but in this use case the image needs to be pre-shrunk before transport for other reasons anyway, so that's not a concern. > raspi-config installs a boot script to resize it on next boot. I haven't used Raspberry is a long long while (there's plenty of other SoCs both cheaper+saner, or more performant+featureful -- often above cheap regular desktops (like NUCs)), but IIRC raspi-config uses ext4 with online grow. Other images do ext4 or f2fs, also in an init script (or the worse alternative...) during first boot. Meow! -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Packager's rule #1: upstream _always_ screws something up.
