Resizing Micro SD card

[Rafael Leiva-Ochoa]

Hi Everyone,

I have recently installed Fedora Server 25 on my Raspberry PI 3, and
the install was really easy. But, I am having problems resizing the
hardrive using the following instructions:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi#Resize_after_initial-setup. I
only get the following error when issuing the resize command:

[test@localhost ~]$ sudo resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p4

[sudo] password for test:

resize2fs 1.43.1 (08-Jun-2016)

resize2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open
/dev/mmcblk0p4

Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock.

[test@localhost ~]$

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Rafael

Got a standard Linux host you can put it into to test? On a x86 box
you can use gparted too

Please try:

sudo xfs_growfs /dev/mmcblk0p4

I've also updated the wiki, thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks Paul. sudo xfs_growfs /dev/mmcblk0p4 worked..

By the way, the current release posted on the wiki is the production
release correct? it's no longer Beta?

Correct, there's not a RPi specific release, it's all part of the
standard Fedora ARM images so the release is part of the core release
and all the ARM images from getfedora.org are capable of running on
the RPi, we just missed updating the wiki.
