X64 imgpart is too small #480

Closed volumio closed 3 years ago

volumio commented 3 years ago

@ashthespy We need to have a x64 imgpart of at least 3,5 GB

Would adding IMAGE_END=3900 to https://github.com/volumio/Build/blob/volumioOS/recipes/devices/x86_amd64.sh do the trick? Can you suggest and do a PR?

gkkpch commented 3 years ago

I can do this tomorrow, so @ashthespy can concentrate on the other things

gkkpch commented 3 years ago

Yes, for x86 we can go the the far end of the initial image size, nobody will be using a 4Gb usb stick other than for testing purposed.

Indeed, but better to add it to the x86.sh "family" device. https://github.com/volumio/Build/blob/7e70a9a70ccd64d4428d7e4fd88b97d5d2d1a8ba/recipes/devices/families/x86.sh#L26-L31

Fixed with 6c529b3

The limit on BOOT_END may have to be raised a little: in case we are editing initrd there is hardly enough room to keep a copy. Will take care of that

gkkpch commented 3 years ago

Something else we need to consider, the old x86 installations have different partition sizes. Though I believe there should be no issues, we will need to test the OTA from old to new very carefully.
