How do you increase the size of the deepin system disk?
To expand the deepin system disk, you can follow these steps:
- To open the terminal in the deepin system, you can use the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T.
- Run the command “sudo fdisk -l” to check the partition situation of the system disk. Locate the partition of the target system disk, which is usually /dev/sda1.
- Run the sudo gparted command to open the GParted partition editor.
- In GParted, select the partition of the target system disk, right-click and choose “Resize/Move”.
- In the pop-up dialog box, adjust the partition size. You can choose to expand the partition to its maximum available space or set a new size based on your needs.
- Click on the “adjust” button to begin expanding the partition. This process may take some time, depending on the size of the system disk partition.
- After the partition has been extended, close the GParted partition editor.
- Execute the command “sudo resize2fs /dev/sda1” in the terminal, assuming that the system disk partition is /dev/sda1, to adjust the file system to fit the new partition size.
- After the expansion is completed, you can verify the increase in the system disk by running the command df -h.
Please note that before expanding the system disk, it is recommended to backup important data to prevent any unexpected issues.
