So, I use systemd-repart in an embedded system of mine. This system runs systemd 254.9 and is custom made using buildroot. I am attempting to do the following: * Create a second root-arm partition with SecondaryRootfs label of 128 MB, and fill it with the content of the PrimaryRootfs partition. * Add a partition of 200 MB, formatted with an ext4 filesystem, and create the directories needed for use with an overlayfs filesystem. Here are my repart.d files: 01-root-arm.conf [Partition] Type=root-arm CopyBlocks=/dev/mmcblk0p6 Label=SecondaryRootfs SizeMinBytes=128M SizeMaxBytes=128M 10-overlayfs.conf [Partition] FactoryReset=yes Format=ext4 Label=overlayfs MakeDirectories=/lower /upper /work SizeMinBytes=200M SizeMaxBytes=200M Type=linux-generic However, no matter what I try,, systemd-repart refuses to modify my disk. I even tried on the original disk image as well as the hardware itself, no go. All I am getting is this output, which I can't make sense of: Starting Repartition Root Disk...

Finished Repartition Root Disk. >From what I understand of this output, it matches my overlayfs.conf with the very first linux-generic partition it encounters, sees it is 512 KB and stops there. It also match my already present rootfs and would try to grow it instead of what I actually want it to do. I'm using systemd-repart like so: /usr/bin/systemd-repart --dry-run=no --root=/ --seed=a0a76bbf793051c3d4f2d24abe84676a /dev/mmcblk0 I've made an actual instantiated unit to target specifically mmcbkl0, as I run from the initramfs, before /sysroot is ever set up let alone mounted, as I am creating the required partition for doing so using repart. So I guess my question here is, what am I dong wrong so that repart doesn't understand I want it to create those partition, not match on existing ones? Am I supposed to create file for PrimaryRootfs also, even if it does already exist, so that repart understand SecondaryRootfs has to be created? What, exactly, am I doing incorrectly, because I'm sure it is me not using the tool properly here, and no actual bug... Thanks!
