Tried again with a new 16 GB microSD card, which succeeded. I collected on the console the boot output, logged in and typed "fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0", both using this 16 GB card and an 8 GB card. The 8 GB card shows the above 4 partions, the 16 GB card shows the proper 3 partitions. During some experimentation with gparted I found that not all sizes of the ext4 partition are accepted. Maybe this is the cause of the wrong partitioning on the 8 GB card. I used another 16 GB card also, which behaved like the 8 GB card. So it seems to be related to the size of the micro SD card.
When a once used SD card gets "refilled" using dd, it will still have the GPT backup at the "end" of the card, which may confuse the kernel. Try erasing the last sector of the card, e.g.:
card=/dev/sdb size=`/usr/sbin/blockdev --getsize /dev/sda` dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda obs=1 seek=$((size - 1024)) count=1024
should be size=`/usr/sbin/blockdev --getsize64 $card` dd if=/dev/zero of=$card obs=1 seek=$((size - 1024)) count=1024 Stefan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
