Is there no software available that could expand that partition..? The original drive is 40GB but the new SSD that most people use is 128GB so that’s a lot of wasted space.
Original Toshiba drive is 80gb and for user is 8gb or 12gb depends of CIC version. I tried few times to expand rest of space for user's partition, but no luck.
The tutorials I've seen for QNX based systems (which the CIC is) is to mount the music volume inside QNX, save the data, shift around/enlarge the partition, reformat, and copy back the data. I hope to try this and in principle it sounds plausible. Admittedly it isn't easy for non-IT folk.
