Raspbian config

On the first use you'll need to configure the partitions

sudo fdisk /dev/sda

Display the partitions using the p command.

Take note of the beginning of the second partition block. For example, my value was 125904. Delete the second partition with the d command then 2. If you again display the partitions it has disappeared.

Create a new partition with n then p then 2. There fdisk provides a value for the starting block (the value that you have identified earlier). The following value is the end block that is the largest possible to fill all the space. If you display the information again you will see that your new partition has a end higher so that means that the partition is larger.

Back up the information with w command. Restart the machine.

Verify current filesytem size:

df -h

Now resize the filesytem:

sudo resize2fs /dev/sda2

Verify if it works:

df -h

SSH access

You can now log in via ssh as well:

ssh -p 5022 -X pi@localhost
