Fresh Odroid C4 install without space

General Discussion
1

Hi there,

I have dietpi running on 6 SBCs, everything is fine and I’m happy. Except for the Odroid C4. I flashed the dietpi image onto my C4 emmc with 16 GB of capacity. But as soon as I try to install anything (k3s in my case), I run out of space.

df -h
gives me this:

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev            1.9G     0  1.9G   0% /dev
tmpfs           372M   38M  334M  11% /run

tmpfs           5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
tmpfs           4.0M     0  4.0M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup

/dev/mmcblk0p1  256M   24M  232M  10% /boot

fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
the “p” gives me this:

Device         Boot  Start      End  Sectors  Size Id Type
/dev/mmcblk0p1        2048   526335   524288  256M  e W95 FAT16 (LBA)

du -ah / | sort -n -r | head -n 20

gives me this:

I don’t get it. Where’s the space? Why is 86% of / used already ?

Thank you so much for any help!

Hi,

we are aware on this issue that the root partition did not get extended correctly https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/5278

Therefore we created a brand new image https://dietpi.com/downloads/images/DietPi_OdroidC4-ARMv8-Bullseye.7z

if you find time, you could give it a try.

Thanks for the lightning fast reply!

It’s working now, cheers!

df -h
gives me:

udev            1.5G     0  1.5G   0% /dev

tmpfs           1.9G     0  1.9G   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs           5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock

Now about 5% are used out of the box. Great!

Set up a few things and now have the c4 running as one of my k3s nodes.

Solved!

Now I can screw the stackable cluster plates back on :slight_smile:

Great. Good to know it is working now. :sunglasses:

If you find time, could you try audio, onboard 3.5mm jack and HDMI? I guess, similar than with Odroid N2, it won’t work OOTB, but then we may be able to get it running with the same configurations we do on Odroid N2. Just let us know, when you find time to try.
