Pixelbook Go - Partitioning the SSD

I have been trying to find information about partitioning my SSD. I have beta channel on and to remove it, I would have to Powerwash my computer.

I was hoping that I could partition my drive so that the media could move into another drive allowing me to reset one drive. I do it very easily on Windows but I can't find the setting in the "Settings" menu.

I searched online and Tom's Guide makes it so easy to do but I don't have an Admin Menu nor a YAST when I click my Settings icon. The guide is from 2014 so did Google remove the functionality?

This would be a bummer since I finally found a way where Word would save changes to documents. I like the laptop quality but it is these minor annoyances which I had wished that someone with deep pockets like Google would have fixed in beta testing. I would have expected it from Linux since it is like a ******* child of the open market but not from Chrome OS.

 

I did find some info here: https://github.com/ethanmad/chromeos-resize
although it says any add/remove to partitions will cause a repair/reformat.

after messing with partitions using cloudready, I gave up. It seems like it was needlessly overpartitoned and overcomplicated.

powerwashing isn't as bad as it sounds. Save everything you have under /downloads to (usb drive/etc), and check that you have everything set to sync in the chromeos settings. After the powerwash it will reinstall all your apps, and everything should come back to the way it was.
