I have a #linux question. I'm trying to update firmware on this laptop but can't boot from the internal drive, so want to run fwupd from a Linux mint live iso.
Which will run, but says I have no space on the drive. I know there is space on the USB. How can I expand the install media to take up more of the disk and allow me to actually run this?
