How to expand partition size on Raspberry Pi Ubuntu disk
Task: expand root partition.
After writing image on sd card I see 3.8GB partition size. I have 14GB sd card.
To use all space use next linux commands:
$ sudo fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.31.1). Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. Be careful before using the write command. Command (m for help): d Partition number (1,2, default 2): 2 Partition 2 has been deleted. Command (m for help): n Partition type p primary (1 primary, 0 extended, 3 free) e extended (container for logical partitions) Select (default p): p Partition number (2-4, default 2): First sector (526336-15278079, default 526336): Last sector, +sectors or +size{K,M,G,T,P} (526336-15278079, default 15278079): Created a new partition 2 of type 'Linux' and of size 7 GiB. Partition #2 contains a ext4 signature. Do you want to remove the signature? [Y]es/[N]o: n Command (m for help): w The partition table has been altered. Syncing disks. $ sudo resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2 resize2fs 1.44.1 (24-Mar-2018) Filesystem at /dev/mmcblk0p2 is mounted on /media/user/writable; on-line resizing required old_desc_blocks = 1, new_desc_blocks = 1 The filesystem on /dev/mmcblk0p2 is now 1843968 (4k) blocks long.
Done.
