You mean MSW is FMW?  Okay.

Yeah, I know how to do it thanks.

But why do this?  Isn't the expansion of the partition automatic on
first boot?

Thanks, that's an important bug.  It is in one image and not the other.

As Rishabh hasn't been changing kernel or graphics drivers, my guess
is that something changed in Debian and Rishabh will have to search in
the Debian bugs for it.

On the other hand, if nobody but you see this, then it is probably
your hardware.  Electrostatic discharge or something.
