256 MicroSD now a 512mb MicroSD

1st Official Post

    Hello. I just ran the installer for the OS onto my MicroSD. It was a 256gb. My plan was to save all my shows onto the same disk as the OS, however after running installer my card now says it is a 512mb SD. I spent the last 3 hours trying to fix this and in the4 end had to use DiskPart on windows to reformat the whoie disk.

    Is there a way to fix this, to make it read as a 256gb card with the OS on it, or could I make it where there are 2 disks on the card. the Primary partition with the OS, then turn the non-allocated section of the SD into it's own drive where I store all the media?

    Thank you in advance.

    The SDcard will have TWO partitions: the 1st partition is configured read-only for the system files only, and the 2nd partition usually is invisible to Windows.

    Also, the 2nd partition will be automagically resized on the first boot of LibreELEC. No need to fiddle with 3rd party disk tools.
