Raspberry Pi post-install grow partition question
I just downloaded the latest Raspberry Pi image (thankks Matthias!) and installed it on a 16Gb MicroSD card. My original intention was to use it with the new Raspi Model B+ but I see this is a work in progress, so I'm using it on a spare Model B.
So, what I noticed after the DD was complete I was left with a 150Mb and a 2Gb partition, which meant that I had about 13Gb wasted space. I used gparted on my Linux box to grow the 2Gb partition to fill the MicroSD card and /dev/root now says that I have a 15Gb partition with 13Gb free. :)o
Is this the right/acceptable way to do this?
edit: on a Raspbian-based system you'd normally do this with raspi-config, but this is my first Arch install and I don't think it's supplied with that.

Re: Raspberry Pi post-install grow partition question
Hi,
yes raspi-config is not supplied on the archLinux. It is too bad, I think.
After you used gparted, did you do a resizefs ? I recommend to do that on a 2nd Linux computer, not directly from the RPi image you are running on.
As an alternative, you can create an additional partition to use the spare space. (if wanted, I write a howto)
best regards
Matthias

Re: Raspberry Pi post-install grow partition question
Resize2fs? Errr, no. I'll check this out and make sure everything starts correctly. Thanks for the info!

Re: Password
Oh thanks for your time. Yea it work. But i stuck the next step. I think it doesnt support my usb wifi dongle dam.

Re: Raspberry Pi post-install grow partition question
Just a quick followup - I checked the resized partition with resize2fs on my (other) Linux box and it reported that there was "nothing to do". FYI, I previously ran gparted on the other Linux box, not on the Raspberry Pi, so it seems to have worked without problems (so far).
Thanks for your help Matthias.

Re: WLAN with D-Link DWA-131
Hello. I am using a Belkin N300 Wireless USB Adapter Model: F9L1002v1 From my research it looks like this uses the Realtek RTL8192SU chipset just like the DLink DWA-131.
However following this thread I am unable to get it working. I am using the ARCH image linked to on this guide www.piratebox.cc (the bittorrent link).
Using it on my Raspberry Pi B+
I tried enabling device probe, upping the probe_time to 20, I switched the driver to rtl871xdrv in the conf and installed the adafruit hostapd as you show. On boot my only error is:

B+ Rasbian, and a. oddball Wifi Dongle (Belkin F9L1002v1 - Realtek RTL8192SU chipset)
Hi all. I've been having a lousy time trying to get my PirateBox going on a Raspberry Pi B+
I first tried following this guide: and used the image file from the torrent. (ArchLinuxARM-2014.10-PirateBox1.0.1_rpi_1.0.1.img)
This resulted in a blinking wireless card, nothing connecting. I followed these instructions to get the driver sorted out, and also tried every step from the bootup issues thread. None of these resulted in the wirless card initializing correctly. always getting:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I decided to try installing piratebox on a rasbian image, since it sounds like this wireless chipset is better on raspbian.
I installed a fresh rasbian image, installed piratebox from the beta linked by Matthias in this thread on the last post. (1.0.1RC1)
I ran through all of the same changes and attempts I had made on the arch image, with no luck.
I didnt have wired connected, so here's a screenshot of the current situation:
![]()
I'm giving up for the night. I apologize for posting bits and pieces of my problems in other threads. it originally seemed a better idea than starting a new redundant thread, but now I feel it's needed.

Re: B+ Rasbian, and a. oddball Wifi Dongle (Belkin F9L1002v1 - Realtek RTL8192SU chipset)
First of all, did you exchange the hostapd daemon & changed the hostpad.conf while trying the ARCHLinux image file provided by us?
You have to switch the default /bin/sh shell to bash, to prevent alot of trouble when running raspbian:

Thanks for the fast reply.
I did try the hostapd binary from adafruit and switching the driver, but I had not done the logging changes on the Arch image.
On Raspbian now I just tried those logging changes. The Output is now as follows on start-up:
Should I switch back to Arch for further testing or does it matter? Id prefer staying on Raspbian since there are some other things I want this Pi to do.

Hey,
you can stay at raspbian, if you want to.
The point I switched from raspbian to Arch is, that Raspbian's image file contains alot of stuff the common PirateBox user don't need and it will only cost useless bandwidth.
So, the log you posted above seems to be a positive startup. But the wifi network still does not appear?

Ah ok. Yeah I need to use this Pi for more than just my piratebox, so I'll stick on raspbian for ease of use for the other stuff for now.
The WiFi network does not show up. I have scanned with my phone and a laptop.
Thanks for the help.

Just to update, it seems the main issue I'm running into is this line
Looking in that file I see the following for around line 81:

Re: How to change default page to image board?
Hi,
what exactly do you want to change?
The look and feel or the css theme (which you can choose on the top of the page / right side).
The css can be changed in the config.pl file.
The general look and feel has to be modified in several perl scripts.

The probe line should work, but it doesn't matter. It seems I made a mistake.
The probe function is listed at the buttom of the script should be at the top.
I pushed the changed script in our hotfix-branch: [github.com]
Try to exchange the script, and pls report back if the script throws no error anymore.
