Increase filesystem size

Postby Agust » Tue May 22, 2012 9:14 am

Hi,

I'm new to Amahi.

Just finished installing.

Have 1T harddrive. The installed Amahi created a 34GB filesystem (where the default shares are) and then the rest of the disk is in another partition.

I want to increase the size of the shares - what would be the best way to do that? (GParted is in alpha)

**** By IRC chat - this is probably the reason for my issue 1)Failing to choose "Desktop" during installaion - and failing to notice this: http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Install_without_LVM

Download gParted Live CD from their website. Boot into it and resize the partitions. The Amahi version of gParted would not help as it runs on the HDA and is only usable for clients.

Thanks for the reply,

After chatting with some Amahi guy's on iRC I ended up installing again - and custom the partions during setup....

I was gonna suggest that, but didn't think you wanted to start over. Probably best you did though.
