Hello Ive been reading through some posts here..and this solution might be stupid call it solution D

So rootfs is to small 256MB and moving it to the /home partition in large flash will cause user data to disappear at reflash.

So what about repartitioning the large flash reducing the size of the 27GB partition creating a new root partition on the large flash lets say 1GB.

Now reflashing this partition should not overwrite any user data ?

Perhaps /dev/mmcblk0p1 could be shrunk and then remove the empty primary partition /dev/mmcblk0p4 and add it again just after /dev/mmcblk0p1 and make this the new rootfs.

Dunno how to do the last thing though.


Ohh I just realized solution D2

You could scrap the swap partition 768MB and use this as a new root partition.

Swap can then be added as a swap file (instead of a partition) inside the /home directory.
