If you have a Linux desktop, try something like gparted. I have
used this since I started with Fedora-arm 18. It makes it easy to
resize all your partitions.<br>
<br>
Since I use Cubieboards, I can build a small mSD card with only the
uboot on it and put all the partitions on a sata drive. I believe
that other Allwinner uboots (for boards with sata) work this way.<br>
<br>
So I can drop the image on a sata drive, enlarge and move all the
partitions and I am ready to go.<br>

<div dir="ltr">And just to follow up, you can omit the "e2fsck"

sufficient, as I have just tested it.

<div>I have run into this same issue and have a brief (and
rough) guide if you wish to try it out.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>First, run "df -h" and see what your current "/"
partition size is. I think with the default image, it's
somewhere around 1.8GB.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Next, you should be able to run "growpart
/dev/mmcblkx n" where x likely refers to mmcblk0 and n
is the partition number, it should be 3. This will grow
your 3rd partition to the maximum available size, but I
believe you should be able to specify your 6GB size.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Once that is complete, run "e2fsck /dev/mmcblk0p3" to
verify filesystem integrity and then "resize2fs
/dev/mmcblk0p3" to expand the ext4 partition. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you run "df -h" after this, you should be able to
see your now larger "/" partition.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Let me know if you have any issues with this. I've
been looking for a reason to organize my thoughts on
this.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks!</div>
