SIRP root partition resize requires user to execute commands having sudo rights first.
As of now /dev/sda1
has 26G size. Whereas used space depends on the usage, so we have to increase it as per the steps below:
Run command cfdisk
as sudo user.
There are two more partitions /dev/sda2
and /dev/sda5
that can be seen in cfdisk utility.
Delete
/dev/sda2
and/dev/sda5
and then resize/dev/sda1
to 100GThen write the partition table to the disk
Once, partition table is written successfully, you'll see the message The partition table has been altered.
Quit the
cfdisk
utility.Then reboot the machine.
Once machine gets rebooted. Run command resize2fs /dev/sda1
as sudo user.
You'll get the message that the filesystem on /dev/sda1 is now 26214144 (4k) blocks long
. Which is the confirmation message that size of /dev/sda1
is increased.
Now run df -h
to see new size.
/dev/sda1
is successfully increased to 99G.
