Create a data partition

Question

Create a data partition

Closed this issue 4 years ago · 4 comments

Currently the wks file, creates a boot partition and a set of A/B partitions. We should have a fourth partition for user data as well. Ideally it would auto expand on first boot to "claim" all the remaining sdcard space.

I'm using 4th partition for data sharing (/home), this is my solution as example. I think that recent version of systemd introduced systemd-repart which may be configured to resize data partition after first boot.

Hi @om26er, @dev-0x7C6,

This is definitely an excellent idea as it will extend the RAUC example that this layer provides.

Thanks,
