Hi Ard,
Thanks for your reply.
I want to expand the available disk space inside the foundation model, so may be the second option you provided will accomplish that. Is that right? Currently the default is 8GB.
The second option implies the first one. Gparted resizes your file system, but can only enlarge it if their is enough free space after it. If there isn't, you need to perform the dd to append some free space.
In the command "cat <old-file> /dev/zero | dd of=<new-file> count=16384 bs=1m" what is old-file and new-file?
old file = your existing rootfs file new file = a copy of your rootfs file padded to 16 GB
I am using the following command to start the foundation model:
anilss@anilss:~/Linaro/tools/Foundation_v8pkg/models/Linux64_GCC-4.1$ ./Foundation_v8 --mbedded_lamp-armv8_20130719-403.img --network=nat --network-nat-ports=8022=22 terminal_0: Listening for serial connection on port 5000 terminal_1: Listening for serial connection on port 5001 terminal_2: Listening for serial connection on port 5002 terminal_3: Listening for serial connection on port 5003 Simulation is started
Could I not add some switch to this command to increase my disk space?
No
