Error running on raspbian buster - The location is outside of the device /dev/mmcblk0

Error when running ./setup-teslausb: The location is outside of the device /dev/mmcblk0. Any idea?

+1 the same

Problem was that I had an initial boot before applying patch for autoresize. Once I re-flashed SD and patched cmdline.txt correctly (before boot), then ./setup-teslausb.sh run without an error.

Specifically remove the init=/usr/lib/raspi-config/init_resize.sh text at the end of the cmdline.txt file.

I am getting the same error. How does cmdline.txt have to look? How is this even related to the error?

This happened (in my case at least) because the whole disk was already allocated for the /boot and the root partitions, so the script tried to start the new partitions beyond the end of the last one.

👍 Thanks @justinporterfield / @divahno. You must edit the cmdline.txt before first boot, removing the init part at the end.
