[Buildroot] part rootfs size (268435456) too small for rootfs.ext4 (283115520)

[Kevin Tomary]

Hello

I have a problem. I wanted to update my build with adding some packages for my embedded system(stm32mp157)

In menuconfig --> Filesystem images I chose an exact size of 270M which generated the above error.

I tested the exact size and I for


  *   exact file size <265 :mkfs.ext4: Could not allocate block in ext2 filesystem while populating file system
*** Maybe you need to increase the filesystem size (BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_SIZE)
fs/ext2/ext2.mk:46: recipe for target '/home/mehdi/buildroot/output/images/rootfs.ext2' failed


  *   exact file size superior or equal to 265 I got : part rootfs size (268435456) too small for rootfs.ext4 (283115520)

What should I do? I am beginning my project and I may need further packages and modules for what is coming.

What should I do?


Best Regards

Kevin

Check if you have a directive in your genimage.cfg file that limits the 
partition size to 256M.
