- Create an image of the SD card your netPI was delivered with using the tool win32diskimager https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
- Write back this image to your own SD card which is usually a larger one
- Insert the new card in your netPI while using a prepared USB update stick to trigger a device update procedure as described in the FAQ https://www.netiot.com/?id=2427
- The update procedure reformats the new SD card and does a repartitioning to the maximum possible size
Hi Armin, with a brand new netPI v1.2.0 upgraded to 1.2.2 it were not resized to the full possible 30GB as described here. All was done with the new and cloned SD-Card, the upgrade to 1.2.2 was done, but the Volume has just 8GB again. The cloned new 32GB SD-Card worked well as 1.2.0 like the original SD before I did the upgrade to 1.2.2.
