Re: [LEDE-DEV] x86 sysupgrade: preserve partition table

2017-09-14 Thread Philip Prindeville
That’s what the -p flag to sysupgrade is for.

Also, there’s not much point in resizing the rootdisk partition: even applying 
several upgrades and maybe adding some new packages, the amount of used space 
isn’t going to grow significantly.

You’re better off creating a 3rd EXT4 partition as /var or something like that. 
 Logs and collectd information are what grow the most.

[LEDE-DEV] x86 sysupgrade: preserve partition table

2017-09-14 Thread Nishant Sharma

Hi,

I am using Lede 17.01.2 on PCEngines APU2. In order to utilise full 16GB 
SSD, I resize the partition after "dd"-ing the Lede image to it.


On sysupgrade, the partition table is re-written and "/" partition is 
back to 256 MB.


Is there a way the existing partition table or at least "/" partition 
size could be preserved?


Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Nishant
