enlarging persistance

[Lenny86]

Hello , I wonder after having choosen the amont of space for persistance is there any way to enlarge it , and also how can i keep track of how much space do i still have free from that persistance space.

I think that you should read the thread "resizing knoppix-data.img" and ask your questions there. The df command can show you how much diskspace you have used and how many bytes are available

how much space do i still have free from that persistance space.

Greetings, Lenny86

du -s -h /*DATA will tell you how much 'new stuff'' is in persistence.
du -h /mnt-system/KNOPPIX/knoppix-data.img tells you how much total persistence space there is.
There is an overhead of 100M to 200M to create the persistence infrastructure; when you
establish persistence, this overhead number is given.

.
If I understand 'createdata()' in /init correctly, Klaus K assumes 200M
for the infrastructure number.

You can also use

df -h

and read the line at /dev/loop0.

Perhaps you'll tell us what you have and what you want:
actual size of your flash disk and your persistent memory and what size of new persistent memory you want.

Do you need a backup of the content from the persistent memory or not?

thanks a lot for the replies , i needed to add space to persistance and thanks to the link provided by klaus2008 it was easy and thanks for all the useful commands and explanation.
