Hi, I have 3 Acer Revos which were all running OpenELEC, I've already changed to LibreELEC on 2 of the boxes, but when I'm trying to update the last one, I'm getting the attached error?

I've downloaded the file from several different mirrors in case it was a file issue and am getting the same error each time -

Any ideas what I can do?

Many thanks
Nick

New version requires a bigger system partition.
Backup your data, reinstall and restore.
Or you can use gparted to grow the partition.

I used the excellent USB Creator tool and did a fresh install - all sorted

I have the exact same scenario .. downloaded the tar. Copied it to multiple Acer Revos .. all of which were on the same version of Openelec (6.0.3) and yet 1 failed with the size error, while the others succeeded.

I'll do the clean install method, but it would be interesting to understand why 1 of multiple identical platform fails.
