Can Someone Help me Out with a system Partition Size Increase.

[Based_Skid]

I need to increase the size of the system partition to 1.2gb for this T95M firmware.

Can anyone help?

It is in aml_upgrade_package.img format.

i would like to be able to have it in this format so that i can work with it in the customization tool.

I dont know how to change or calculate the system partition size using the tool or i would try and attempt it myself.

can anyone do this?


This is the 1G + 8 Model (1gb ram, 8gm rom)

Okay, the stage2.img appears to just be the device tree blob (DTB), which the AML Customization Tool has extracted to meson1.dtb for your convenience. (The meson1.dtb, however, has an extra 0x800 byte header that must be stripped out before you can convert it to a DTS file using the dtc command in Linux.) The tool actually pulls the partition information from the DTB so that they always stay in sync, so here's what you do if you want to change it:

• Load the AML upgrade package with the Customization Tool, just selecting the first two low level options (Edit DTD & Modify Partition Table).
• Edit the partition tables (both copies) in the meson1.dtd file (search for the string "partitions") using a hex editor, or...
• You could strip out the 0x800 byte header, use the dtc command (sudo apt-get install device-tree-compiler) to convert the file to a human-readable DTS file, make the change, and then convert it back to a DTB file. (Don't forget to restore the special AML header.)
• Finally, just substitute the new system.PARTITION, pack the image, and flash using USB Burning Tool.

I've tested this using a modified meson1.dtb file, and confirmed that it updated the boot.PARTITION and formatted the system partition correctly. However, remember to target the new larger partition size when you create the sparse system image using make_ext4fs, or you won't see the additional free space.""
