Replicant

In Replicant 9 we could flash the USERDATA partition with

sudo heimdall flash --BOOT boot.img --USERDATA userdata.img --SYSTEM system.img

The userdata.img image was really small and was resized during the first boot and possibly on subsequent boots as well.

Here it doesn't work anymore probably because init tries to enforce selinux context on what it calls even with selinux in permissive mode.

So the script that did the resize (with resize2fs) isn't run anymore.

That makes the boot block when flashing it in this way.

• First flash the images with heimdall flash --BOOT boot.img --RECOVERY recovery.img --SYSTEM system.img
• Then reboot to recovery during the boot by pressing the volume up, menu and power buttons
• Then select Wipe data/factory reset and then Factory data reset
• Then select Reboot the system now
