Project Details

The rootfs-resize package is used to resize the partitions on machines that utilized an SD card for storage. SD cards could be formatted using UFS, Ext2, Ext3, Ext4, btrfs, HFS plus or ReiserFS file systems. Pidora works with primary partitions and with a NOOBS(New Out Of Box System) system. NOOBS in a nutshell is basically used to make setting up a Pi effortless and any person regardless of their technical background can acheive. It however does not support extended and logical partitions. The current version is 2.0 which is written by Chris Tyler.
