Resizing imagee

[apcyberax]

Hi,
I have just got pfsense and love it. i've installed some packages and love it.

I have searched the forums and wiki but all i can find is posts that say they will not work in new versions.

I have a 4gb CF but only showing limited space
Filesystem          Size    Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ufs/pfsense0    443M    255M    152M    63%    /
devfs                1.0K    1.0K      0B  100%    /dev
/dev/md0            3.6M    38K    3.3M    1%    /var/run
/dev/ufs/cf          49M    1.8M    44M    4%    /cf
devfs                1.0K    1.0K      0B  100%    /var/dhcpd/dev

Is there any safe way to resize the image to 2-4gb without damaging the install.

The device i have is http://linitx.com/viewproduct.php?prodid=12647

Any help would be great.

Thanks

You cannot resize a 1.2.3-RELEASE nanobsd image, that's why they come in different sizes pre-made.

It looks like you only used a 1GB image when that CF was written. There is a 4GB image that will give you 2GB usable on the / partition. The other 2GB (minus a little) is for the secondary OS slice for upgrades.

thanks jimp

Whats the easyest way to install the 2g image on an embeded device with only a serial port?

I dont want to mess it up just becuase i want more log space :)

You need to pull the CF or storage media and image it on another system.

Also, the CF is kept read-only so that it isn't worn out by constant writes. Logs are kept on a RAM disk (both /var and /tmp are kept in memory).
