I had this issue with my MachineKit images until I switched to lightdm instead of xdm. Lightdm is trusted by consolekit (no relation to MachineKit! :) and thus allows things like rebooting and user mounting of USB devices. I was running xfce4, however, so lxde might be different.

yes, having an 8G option would be really nice. 4G to an 8G card wastes half the card and makes it a pain to ever recover the other 4G.

I'm not sure you'd want to put everything required to resize the root partition into the initrd. What about something similar to /forcefsck where an init script runs and checks for the presence of /resizerootfs or somesuch and then makes the various required checks (that there is actually space available, the filesystem is clean, the filesystem is a type that can be extende3d, etc). Can any simplifying assumptions be made about things like the root device, partition layout, etc? It would be nice if you could just have a 2G raw image (saves time writing) and expand the filesystem on the first boot. How long does it take to expand an ext4 filesystem, anyway? I use jfs on my x86 boxes because you can expand the fs live while it's mounted (very handy for virtual machines and systems with SAN back-ends, where I'm always growing the storage!). Last I checked, resizing ext3 was a royal PITA by comparison...I hope this is improved with ext4. -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

I'm not sure you'd want to put everything required to resize the root partition into the initrd. I was thinking about doing it in the initrd to remove the reboot in the process.. use fdisk to re-partition drive: reboot run resize2fs What about something similar to /forcefsck where an init script runs and checks for the presence of /resizerootfs or somesuch and then makes the various required checks (that there is actually space available, the filesystem is clean, the filesystem is a type that can be extende3d, etc). adding /resizerootfs to the fat boot partition would be a good trigger for the script.. Can any simplifying assumptions be made about things like the root device, partition layout, etc? with sfdisk we can easily dump/restore.. sfdisk -d /dev/mmcblk0 part_table sfdisk /dev/mmcblk0 part_table For the default images i've been using: sudo sfdisk --in-order --Linux --unit M /dev/mmcblk0 -__EOF__ 1,96,0xE,* ,,,- __EOF__ Could just cheat and always force that.. It would be nice if you could just have a 2G raw image (saves time writing) and expand the filesystem on the first boot. How long does it take to expand an ext4 filesystem, anyway?
