| + | ==== Prepeare the drive for rootfs ==== | ||
| + | The drive must have a primary partition (for example with 10 GByte) formated with filesystem "ext4". You can use the Linaro user interface DISK app, gparted or use the following shell commands | ||
| + | |||
| + | list all available drives | ||
| + | #fdisk -l | ||
| + | |||
| + | Choose the drive you want to make changes to (e.g. sda): | ||
| + | #fdisk /dev/sda | ||
| + | | ||
| + | use "p" (print partition of a drive), "d" delete a partition or "n" (create new partition). The partition should be of type "83" | ||
| + | | ||
| + | Format the partition for rootfs with EXT4 filesystem | ||
| + | #mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 | ||
