[U-Boot] On writing .ext4 image to MMC
Hello everyone,
I am able to download a .ext4 image over tftp and write it to my SD card. The system boots fine. One last thing I have to figure out is to expand this .ext4 file system that I just populated. If the image is 600MB, the partition size itself is 600MB, leaving no room.
Is there anything I can do to remedy this in U-Boot?

Hi Michael, I used gparted to fix the issue. I am just wondering if I can do all this in U-Boot. If there is no good solution, I will put one-time script in my rootfs to do this task.

Sorry most of the system on first boot create a first instance of something like ssd for keys. I think that just use resize FS should do the trick. Why is should be done in bootloader?

Hi,
I think you can also create an ext4 image with extra space in it. You can use bmap tool if size is a concern.
