Be careful, 8192 is not size but starting point in SD card where Linux files starts.

I bumped into this new way of doing this for new BeagleBone users:

sudo /opt/scripts/tools/grow_partition.sh

sudo reboot now

Hi,

I recently downloaded the last image Debian 8.7 2017-03-19 and did all the steps you mentioned and that also are here: BeagleBoard.org - updates, afterwards the BBB turn itself down and I need to extract the SD, otherwise if I connect the BBB to the power with the SD mounted it will flash again.

However, I power up the BBB and then place the SD and get the following output:

root@beaglebone:~# df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

udev 10M 0 10M 0% /dev

tmpfs 98M 2.9M 95M 3% /run

/dev/mmcblk1p1 3.5G 2.9G 430M 88% /

tmpfs 245M 4.0K 245M 1% /dev/shm

tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock

tmpfs 245M 0 245M 0% /sys/fs/cgroup

tmpfs 49M 0 49M 0% /run/user/1000

I'm assuming I just had to to the same changing mmcblk0 to mmcblk1 but I would like you to tell me if I'm right. Also, will this allow the BBB to power-on with the SD mounted and use it as available storage
