I think using ${PWD} will fail because mender-convert normally runs in a container and the working directory has a different path inside the container.

The free space is determined by the value of MENDER\_STORAGE\_TOTAL\_SIZE\_MB that is in your configuration file. You can increase that and you should see more space. We set the default low for quicker demo purposes.
You should probably setup a [custom configuration file](https://docs.mender.io/system-updates-debian-family/convert-a-mender-debian-image/customization#configuration-files) for your own settings that modify the defaults.
You may also want to investigate the [MENDER\_DATA\_PART\_GROWFS variable](https://docs.mender.io/system-updates-debian-family/variables#mender_data_part_growfs) which will, on first boot, expand the data partition to the end of the drive.

So in the [https://github.com/mendersoftware/mender-convert/blob/2.2.0/configs/mender\_convert\_config](https://github.com/mendersoftware/mender-convert/blob/2.2.0/configs/mender_convert_config),
1. If I have a 16GB SD card, should I mention 16GB = 16000 MB for the MENDER\_STORAGE\_TOTAL\_SIZE\_MB ? , So will I get complete 16 Gb ( after taking the 8GB for the Raspbian and other partitions) ?
2. So as you said, this [MENDER\_DATA\_PART\_GROWFS] variable is related to the mentioned MENDER\_STORAGE\_TOTAL\_SIZE\_MB variable ??

The size of the root partition is calculated. Basically it’s (MENDER\_STORAGE\_TOTAL\_SIZE\_MB - MENDER\_BOOT\_PART\_SIZE\_MB - MENDER\_DATA\_PART\_SIZE\_MB)/2.
If you specify MENDER\_STORAGE\_TOTAL\_SIZE \_MB as the full size of your disk then you likely want to tweak the data partitions size as well. If you specify it as smaller, then using MENDER\_DATA\_PART\_GROWFS will automatically use the rest of the disk for the data partition.

Hi @drewmoseley
I have been building and testing out this image,
I wanted to test the system update, so I flashed this image with default size parameters into the RPi, and I have build another mender RPi zero image with slight change and then uploaded the .mender artifact and deploying it to the RPi ( this mender also flashed with same default parameters), But the deployment is stuck at 69%, and no errors or warnings in the deployment logs.
IFYI: I tried base image as 8GB storage\_size and tried deploying a system updated (the .mender of another custom build with 8GB storage parameters), and also tried 12Gb as storage\_size parameters.

Please post the output from `$ sudo journalctl -u mender-client` run from your device.

Hi @drewmoseley
I don’t have the device right now, its in remote location, So i can give this output tmrw,
I have the failed deployment log, Shall I share that?
