Here is a week old posting: [Moblin Dev] Issue creating Install USB
image with the latest MIC?

I also ran yesterday into the same problem while creating an Install USB
image for device with 2GB drive.

One place to fix this is defaults.cfg file as Praj wrote, but also the
MIC script platforms/common-apt/install.sh could be fixed the way it
will stop and give the error message "Disk is too small to create boot,
main/data, swap and fat32 partitions" in case when sum of
boot_partition_size, swap__partition_size, and fat32_partition_size
greater then the disk size.

Thank you,

Alex

You can customize the boot partition and other partition size. To do 
this create a file ~/.image-creator/image-creator.cfg and use 
/usr/share/pdk/default_config/defaults.cfg as a template.
Thanks,

Subject: [Moblin Dev] Issue with 'Install USB'?

Hi,

 

I have been trying to create an 'Install USB' image for menlow-lpia
platform with moblin-crownbeach-full-mobile-stack FSET added and I am
seeing an hang during OS boot after the OS installation completed on the
HDD from the Install USB image. There is no issue when I boot the OS
with an Live RW. Is there any issue with the Install USB image off-late?

 

Regards,
