You should manually expand partition. I suspect there is not an auto repartition script in chromium pi like offcial rpi images does. Gparted or anything similar on windows or mac should do.

You can do it manually. Try this command in the shell:
sudo /usr/sbin/expand-partition.sh -d $(findmnt -n -o source /mnt/stateful_partition)
Or
sudo rm /mnt/stateful_partition/.autoexpanded The system will try expand the partition on next booting.

Hello,
Once installed, I go to the terminal but the ChromeOS says that it does not know the sudo command. Do I do something wrong?

Hello,
Under which application in Chrome OS do you type this command?
Thanks,

Under which application in Chrome OS do you type this command?

In Chromium OS desktop press ctrl + alt + t and then type shell to invoke web-based bash shell

Is it common to close resolved issues. It is better to update the readme page with relevant FAQ/informations.

I ran power wash and it corrected it.

Or sudo rm /mnt/stateful_partition/.autoexpanded The system will try expand the partition on next booting.

Is this file added on first boot after attemtping to auto-expand, or is it already present? If it is the first, why would the auto-expand complete without succeeding?
