I followed this link:
elinux.org/Beagleboard:MicroSD_AS_Extra_Storage
Using 8 GB SD card, the Disk Utility program sees the partition and size correctly.
Not with df-h command. I think it sees only 1GB. ( 8GBDrive)
My BBB boots from eMMC.
My environments :
uname -a
Linux beaglebone 3.8.13 #1 SMP Sun Jan 12 13:00:53 CET 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux

Reading from “groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/V_qRQwbS55I”,
I tried the “lsblk” command and it listed the extra storage correctly.
lsblk
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
mmcblk1boot0 179:16 0 1M 1 disk
mmcblk1boot1 179:24 0 1M 1 disk

-mmcblk1p1 179:9 0 70.6M 0 part /media/BEAGLEBONE
`-mmcblk1p2 179:10 0 1.7G 0 part /
Could someone explain what happens and how to fix it ?
I am a newbie.
Many Thanks.
