Writing Disk image shrinks disk size + importing fixture library

Hi All,
I'm new to this so bare with me. I'm writing the disc image onto a 14.8 GB SD Card. When I'm thru the disc gets re-sized to 51 MBs and I can't import thee fixture profile on to the card. How do I stop this re-sizing issue from happening/ I'm using Win32 Disklmanager V4.0 Which brings up the next question, do I import the entire "opt" director or the sub directories or just the files that lie within those? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hank

Hi All again,
Thought I might have the answer I copied all the files from the disk image into a directory on my Windows 10 machine then reformatted the disc and copied them back on. The system loaded until 2.4899951 where I received a message that began with end kernel panic - not syncing;. Not sure what to do.

You need to resize the image on the pi...

Exit qlcplus
Login to terminal... pi / raspberry
Run:

Code: Select all

sudo raspi-config 
Option 1 Expand filesystem
Reboot
