Hi chill, We found that people have started to modify their SD cards manually, like adding extra partitions, using random formats. The old resize command assumed people were using a standard pCP SD card, and it will blindly screw up non-standard SD cards. So the message says it all. "You are using a non-standard SD card so this option has been disabled to prevent damage to your SD card. You may have non-standard partition names or more than 2 partitions." For the last couple of pCP versions, we have labelled the 2 partitions PCP_BOOT and PCP_ROOT. (I can't remember when we actually started using PCP_ROOT, pCP4.1.0 or pCP5.0.0?? ) So the resize command now requires there be only 2 partitions and they are labelled PCP_BOOT and PCP_ROOT. My "guess" if your SD card was originally created on versions previous to pCP4.1.0 it may be missing the second partition PCP_ROOT label. If you believe your SD card should be OK then manually label the partition. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110642 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
