How to set the size in MB ?

[1457384613gh]

sudo bash chromeos-install.sh -src chromeos_filename.bin -dst ~/tmpmount/chromeos.img -s size The size is in GB. If the size I want to set is 61,036 MB=59.60547 GB , how could I input?

That is the best I can do. It doesn’t accept decimals (I tried)

Considering the partition alignment, the sizes of partitions are multiple of 2MiB.

So, 2MiB is like a bridge between real GiB and almost GB.

Those who always use Windows like using GiB, for whom, here is nothing;

Those who always use Mac or Fedora like using GB, for whom, here is this.

• 2GB∧4= 16GB≈ 15,258 MiB
• 2GB∧5= 32GB≈ 30,518 MiB
• 2GB∧6= 64GB≈ 61,036 MiB
• 2GB∧7= 128GB≈122,070 MiB
• 2GB∧8= 256GB≈244,140 MiB
• 2GB∧9= 512GB≈488,282 MiB
• 2GB∧X=1024GB≈976,562 MiB

They could have gotten a .img disk with size of almost 2GB∧n, and n=4,5,6,7,8,9,10…

Maybe, it's a behavior of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

However, disk tool of Mac and real disk capacity have that which makes people have better feelings.

If sudo bash … [number] #MiB, we will get a .img disk with all kinds of sizes of both really GiB and almost GB.

If almost some GB of 2∧n, disks or partitions are look larger and more beautiful than themselves in GiB with decimals. 😂😂😂 Though only we are deceiving ourselves!

I don't like windows but I have it :) Ok... How does 2GB to the 4th power help me?

Upside down.

If we want to get a .img disk of almost 64GB, we could have typed sudo bash … 61036 #MiB. 🤣🤣🤣 So if only MiB!

[tejasraman]

🤣🤣 😁 was that really  the solution? Typing #MiB after the number in bash? That is just what I needed because my disk wasn’t big enough. You helped me more than I helped you. On Apr 22, 2022, 9:18 PM -0600, Chauncy♋ @.***>, wrote:

Here is ext4, now. I have updated it, just now!

Android is here. I have updated again, just now.

[tejasraman]

That's great! Thanks so much!

This is disk tool of gnome. Look at sizes of partitions.

[tejasraman]

I know it is the disk tool of gnome, I interact with gnome on a daily basis in my PC. I see what you mean now. Nice that your issue is resolved. Oh, that is a lot of partitions! (External drive mounting saga for the files partitions) In Brunch, there is a native drives option so you can access all the partitions (it’s in the brunch settings) On Apr 22, 2022, 11:03 PM -0600, Chauncy♋ @.***>, wrote:

Thank you! 😂🤣😂🤣😂 So could we typed sudo bash … [number] #MiB by using soon-coming Brunch Framework R-101?
