      @ChimpsInTies
      OK I got the external hard drive working which does seem like a better way to go, however the internal sd card share still didn't reduce in size and is 100% full. I thought it was move the files over to the external drive but it appears to have just copied them. This also means I have 2 copies of some games. Bit strange. Maybe it's expected behaviour, I don't know?

      I ended up unplugging the extrnal drive, then accessing the sd card share and deleting all the previously crated kodi images and the games on there. Now it's got some space and everything is stored on the external drive.

      This still didn't answer the question as to why I only ended up with a tiny 3.2GB share partition in the first place but at least it's working now. I've realised that once you get to scraping your games and it downloads screenshots and videos it does start to take up a lot of space anyway so probably good to have 2TB instead

      @voljega said in Resizing text for TFT Screen in 4.1:

      @matra so you mean you can't fing the recalbox theme in 4.1 ?

      Did you look in both share and share_init paths ?

      Found it [main.xml] in the share_init path, knew it would be something simple that I was missing! Thanks!

      Substring

      @Ratte such tools shouldn't have an IHM.
      Using fsck should eventually happen in an automatic way when there are no possible risks. Otherwise, too risly to have a GUI for that.
      Partition resizing / backup : no partition resizing, recalbox is not GParted. And partitoin resizing is something that works very bad depending on the FS of the concerned partition.

      Partition backup : the only one that is worth is the share partition. https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Use-an-external-usb-storage-device-on-recalbox-(EN)#optional--sync-your-usb-key-with-your-sd is more than enough, despite we could eventually add this in a menu, I agree. But that's not the main concern for now.

      Boas noticias.

      Consegui resolver este erro da seguinte maneira.

      Em uma maquina Windows XP SP3 , utilizei o SD FORMATER 4 com as opções "full (overwrite) e Turning "on" ativadas e para o formato FAT32.
      Após o termino do processo, acessei o "diskmgmt.msc" do windows para verificar as partições, e a mesma estava apenas com 1 partição em FAT32.
      Copiei os arquivos novamente para o cartão SD e o sistema funcionou.

      @substring Didn't know that there is such option 🙂 Thanks I'll try that.

      IT WORKED! 🙂 There was no resizing existing Fat Partition Error. I just transfered Noobs lite installer files on the card and installed recalbox easily over the net. It was the best and easy way to do that, thanks Substring 🙂
