[Software] unable to resize microsd partition

I need to resize the primary partition and root filesystem on an unmounted 16GB microSD card containing a newly-installed Debian 12 OS. So far, I have: $ mount | grep /dev/sda $ $ fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 14.84 GiB, 15931539456 bytes, 31116288 sectors Disk model: 1081CS0 Units: sectors of 1 ...

Re: How to diagnose system "freezes"?

Yes, thank you both. If a remount-ro does occur, and the system can't write to log files or the systemd journal, wouldn't that cause a potential for a freeze? Such is my thinking for /etc/fstab / "defaults".

Re: How to diagnose system "freezes"?

... A third guess is that there is a major hardware o software (kernel bug) malfunction that corrupts memory, but there is no evidence of this (yet).

I would prefer not to have installed the snap modules, but had to due to the ugly fact that Debian removed rtsp support, which is needed for the security cameras. # inxi -maz Memory: RAM: total: 62.15 GiB used: 3.61 GiB (5.8%) Array-1: capacity: 128 GiB slots: 2 EC: None max-module-size: 64 GiB note...

I have to work fast, because the system last froze a few minutes after login with only a single-tabbed konsole and a single firefox tab open to this forum, so there will be edits as I explore each of your suggestions. After this edit, I will do memtest86+ until it quits (4x?). # journalctl 2>&1 ...

Having difficulty inserting the camera image, but memtest86+ v6.1.0 reports "PASSED". I was hoping that would've solved the issue, but I've had about a dozen freeze/power-cycle today, running far fewer programs than I normally run. I have 7 days left on the 1 year warranty, and am preparin...

Re: Upgrade to Debian 12 "bookworm" when available?

"non-free-firmware" doesn't work on a Pi3B+ upgrade, so one should retain "non-free" on that hardware.
