<p dir="ltr">I would try run the android emulator native on the hardware. Emulator in a VM sounds painfully slow unless hardware is pretty beefy.<br>
That said, I would create a new VM and start over with better size disks and do manual partitioning. It would be faster that resizing a drive and file system.</p>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I'm trying to get an Android emulator working in a mint 13 vm and a number of different things are driving me nuts.<br>
<br>
I'll put the storage problem here and other problems in other threads.<br>
<br>
I'm working on a mint 13 vm. The HDD is a virtualbox 10 GB dynamically expandable vdi file as shown here. The vm has 4 gb of ram and 4 cpu's.<br>
<br>

<br>
Unbeknown to me, when I installed mint, it allocated 4 GB to swap space. So, the file system is limited to 6 gb and is now completely full, such that any new procedures I try to run are failing.<br>
<br>

<br>
So, I need a way to increase the size of the VDI file and then a way to increase the size of the file system that mint sees.<br>
<br>
I could delete the swap partitions in the existing drive, replace them with a smaller swap file, and then resize the ext4 partition with gparted. But, that really seems like the long way around the block.<br>
<br>
Anyone know an easier way to fix this?<br>
<br>
Any help is GREATLY appreciated.<br>
<br>
I'm going for a walk at the park and a dose of highly fattening, but therapeutic, food at Wendy's. 8-(<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
