Hi all,
I was wondering if anybody knows whether is possible to reduce the size of system partition, which is currently limited to 900MB.
The problem is that I have very small media available and I did not detect any possible customization regarding system partition size.
Could anybody point me where this could changed.
Thanks you.

Re: Changing system partition size
I don't know how to do it in kiosk, but try Gparted to resize

Re: Changing system partition size
I found a way for Kiosk version to set image size smaller then 900MB.
In the wizard menu, after completing customization, there is an option to save an image as ISO. ISO image saved was only 128 MB, what is just enough for me.
Gparted is not possible, because Kiosk distribution uses encryption and shows as unknown file type and partition options are disabled.
Thanks for the tip.

Hello andrej,
If you are using remote management then please make sure you burn your ISO on second partition otherwise whole hard drive will be wiped during kiosk reconfiguration.
