Hello,

Is there an easy way to upgrade a 4gb to 8gb SD-Card?

Can i use some software (windows environment) to copy the current 4gb to the new 8gb and that rezise the 3rd partition with an partition manager?

hi, there is a detailed report somewhere in this forum how to enlarge the data partition on a running meteohub system.
When you search a bit you should find it.

It works easily with a GParted-LiveCD.

The only things you need are two SD-card readers. It works for example with an internal reader of a laptop and an USB card reader.
Then plug in the old and new card and boot from the GParted-CD.
There you can copy and paste the content from the old card to the new card and expand the data-partition.
