*Both* RaspBMC partitions get expanded #108
Description
Not a bug with NOOBS itself per-se, but a problem with one of the data-files it's using.
In os/RaspBMC/partitions.json
(and also in http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbmc/partitions.json ) you have "want_maximised": "N",
and "want_maximised": "Y",
instead of the "want_maximised": false,
and "want_maximised": true,
used by all the other partitions.json
files.
NOOBS then (correctly) interprets both non-empty strings as boolean true values, and as a result both the RaspBMC partitions get maximised, rather than only the root partition.
I've just installed OpenELEC, RaspBMC and Raspbian onto my 16GB SDHC card using the "full" NOOBS v1.3, and ended up with this partition table:
Model: SD SU16G (sd/mmc)
Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 15.9GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 4194kB 1278MB 1274MB primary fat32 lba
2 1279MB 15.9GB 14.6GB extended
5 1283MB 1418MB 134MB logical fat16 lba
6 1422MB 4816MB 3394MB logical ext4
7 4819MB 7391MB 2572MB logical fat32 lba
8 7395MB 11.2GB 3851MB logical ext4
9 11.2GB 11.3GB 62.9MB logical fat16 lba
10 11.3GB 15.9GB 4575MB logical ext4
3 15.9GB 15.9GB 33.6MB primary ext4
i.e. RaspBMC has been given a 2.5GB boot partition!
The fix is to simply edit RaspBMC's partitions.json
file to correctly use boolean JSON values rather than strings. (easy to do for the online version!)
And maybe you could consider validating the JSON files against a well-defined schema, as I once suggested to you in an email? ;-)
