Currently the pre-installed OS of IGT-20 is Debian 8, and the OS image is less than 1GB in a 8GB microSD. By using df command, one can observe the real disk usage as below:
root@igt20:~#df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on udev 10240 0 10240 0% /dev tmpfs 203848 5332 198516 3% /run /dev/mmcblk1p0 836280 417880 358704 54% / tmpfs 509616 0 509616 0% /dev/shm tmpfs 5120 0 5120 0% /run/lock tmpfs 509616 0 509616 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
The image occupies around 850MB while 54% is still not used. With another command cfdisk, one can find the total microSD capacity and the free space
As shown in the picture, the real capacity is 7.5GB (8,010,072,064 bytes) with 6.6GB not located. Since IGT-20 provides the other external microSD slot, it’s better to store the user data in the external microSD. However, in some cases, if you’d not like to have another SD, it’s better to create a new partition using the 6.6G free space instead of extending the original partition.
