Situation: I used Etcher to set up a 65GB Gigastone Type10 card on Mac OS X. Verified card was imaged successfully and noted that the card image was only about 60MB of formatted space. Placed card into fully assembled mintypi (v3). Booted up and alowed it time to do whatever it wanted.
Expected Behavior: Based on what I could surmise from the numerous videos (and apparent lack of a detailed step-by-step for noobs like me), I expected teh image to load and then expand to fill the card (kind of a self-extraction thing). This did not happen...
What I tried: I tried to "Etcher" in the mintypiv3 images from 20190501 and 20190721. Also tried letting the thing site for up to an hour with each image. Tried drinking beer and thinking. Given that the card works perfectly for other images on other pi applications, I next resulted to drinking more beer and researching the forums.
So here I am, tipsy, frustrated, and still a noob that can't get the image to fill the entire card.
TIA for any shoves in the right direction.
