Then when booting the Pi Xbian used to resize the partition. XBian is resizing only physically LAST partition. if the one it boots from is not last, resize will not run. during first boot XBian creates swap partition at the end of SD card. when you copied 2gb card with win32imager, it copied also this swap partition. 1. simple solution is just delete the part nr. 3, then it will resize and recreate swap as needed. 2. or use XBian's native tools to copy the installation. XBian config can create own .img which you can just reflash to another card / usb disk. 3. or it can also copy own partition to another media directly. but there you would need to create /boot manually.

RE: Moving Beta 2 to bigger card
When is this img rollout gonna happen??
Im stuck with this freezing at FS RESIZE step, I already entered a post in the forum about that, can you please take a look at it ?? http://forum.xbian.org/thread-2013.html Thanks in advance !! Is a pitty that this is so buggy, I had openELEC but I wanted some of the flexibility of XBian but .. if it does not work smooth.. I'll have to get back to openELEC |

@javirs
as I posted above, this are solutions: 1) remove splash from cmdline.txt or 2) update your xbian installation (at least xbian-package-initramfs-tools package) Please read rules and do a search before you post! . FAQs . How to post log file? . Looking for answers? Please start here |
