Hi Mender Team and All: I have been using mender-convert Version: 2.1.0b1-dirty with docker and I have been mender-converting RPI3B+(stretch)-based system and doing OTA update for some time using my hosted mender account. It has been long since it did the setup with lots of help from Drew and Mirza I believe. I don’t want to mess it up. Now I am porting my system to RPI4B+bullseye-lite. How do I upgrade my mender-convert to the more recent one? Which version? So that I can use it for both RPI 3B+ and 4B. Greatly appreciate your help/guidance. Thanks, Raj ---

Hmm, I’m not sure I follow? Are you afraid of losing the custom setup you have, or that the new setup won’t work? For 1. Trying out the newer convert version you could try and download the newer mender-convert by following the instructions [here](https://github.com/mendersoftware/mender-convert), and do a conversion for RPi{3|4}. Then try adding on your custom setup afterwards, all the while not touching your old setup. Or am I missing the mark here completely? ---

oleorhagen: Thanks for the mender-convert link. My current setup is under docker. Which version of mender-convert should I clone for RPI3B+ & 4B? I have Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS on my laptop. Thanks, raj ---

Thanks oleorhagen, I clean installed mender-convert using github and followed the instruction for the hosted mender to mender-convert but I get: ```auto 2022-08-28 11:24:54 [FATAL] [mender-convert-package] You can try adjusting the MENDER_STORAGE_TOTAL_SIZE_MB variable to increase available space, or modify one of the variables IMAGE_ROOTFS_SIZE, IMAGE_ROOTFS_EXTRA_SPACE or IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR to reduce the size of the root filesystem. ``` In configs/mender\_convert\_config, I have: MENDER\_STORAGE\_TOTAL\_SIZE\_MB=“60129” IMAGE\_ROOTFS\_SIZE=“0” IMAGE\_ROOTFS\_EXTRA\_SPACE=“0” IMAGE\_OVERHEAD\_FACTOR=“1.5” MENDER\_DATA\_PART\_SIZE\_MB=“256” MENDER\_BOOT\_PART\_SIZE\_MB=“512” Here’s the log: Sun 28 Aug 2022 06:23:39 AM CDT using log file at: /home/rajendra/Downloads/mender-convert/logs/convert.log.1661685820-180934 Running mender-convert --disk-image input/2022-04-04-raspios-bullseye-armhf.img --config configs/raspberrypi4\_config --config input/config/custom\_config Running mender-convert-extract: --config ./work/override\_compression\_config --disk-image input/2022-04-04-raspios-bullseye-armhf.img --config configs/raspberrypi4\_config --config input/config/custom\_config 2022-08-28 11:23:43 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Using configuration file: configs/mender\_convert\_config 2022-08-28 11:23:43 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Using configuration file: ./work/override\_compression\_config 2022-08-28 11:23:43 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Using configuration file: configs/raspberrypi4\_config 2022-08-28 11:23:43 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Using configuration file: input/config/custom\_config 2022-08-28 11:23:43 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Validating disk image 2022-08-28 11:23:43 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] Disk parsed successfully 2022-08-28 11:23:44 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] NUMBER OF PARTS: 2 TYPE: dos 2022-08-28 11:23:44 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] PART 1: SIZE: 256M TYPE: 0xc 2022-08-28 11:23:44 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] PART 1: extracting to work/part-1.fs 2022-08-28 11:23:44 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] PART 2: SIZE: 3.8G TYPE: 0x83 2022-08-28 11:23:45 [INFO] [mender-convert-extract] PART 2: extracting to work/part-2.fs mender-convert-extract has finished.
