General Questions • [Software] unable to resize microsd partition

$

Fdisk & parted are reporting two different sda1 definitions:

1-FAT32 vs. FAT16

2-start @1MB vs. start @2MB

Other than starting over, I have no suggestion how best to fix it. If starting over, I would create a new GPT table. Booting is commonly more reliable using GPT.

FWIW, a 100M sda1 is typically an ESP partition definition created by Windows on a GPT disk. Was Windows ever installed on this microSD card? The Debian installer creating a new one on an empty disk wouldn't be making one that size I don't think (something else was always installed first here, so no direct experience for the context). Most Linux installers default to a much larger size for an ESP, but will keep 100M undisturbed for multiboot usage.
