  • How to create and mount a seperate ext4 partition on the SD card

    Hello,

    I have installed Libreelec on RP3 using NOOBS. I need a seperate 2-4GB ext4 partition and I want to mount it to the OS. This is how the default partition layout looks like on the sd card after installing Libreelec through NOOBS:-

    Code
    ~ >>> lsblk                                                                                                       
NAME               MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE  MOUNTPOINT
sda                  8:0    1  14.8G  0 disk  
├─sda1               8:1    1   2.4G  0 part  
├─sda2               8:2    1     1K  0 part  
├─sda5               8:5    1    32M  0 part  /run/media/klock/SETTINGS
├─sda6               8:6    1   512M  0 part  /run/media/klock/System
└─sda7               8:7    1  11.9G  0 part  /run/media/klock/Storage

    All I would like is a maybe the sda 7 partition to shrink down to maybe like 8G and use the extra to create an ext4 filesystem and then mount it via ssh however I am not sure how I can do that so if anyone can guide me it would be very appreciated.
