One HUGE problem with that page. Its not printable! What the he!! good is 
it if I can't take a print out to the machine and checkmark the steps as 
I go. Way to go stackexchange, not!.  But I did anyway. :)

But its also NOOBS centric and I think I'm booting via a different system 
with the images i'm using. Yeah my df looks very little like the report 
here, but it doesn't say. Then at whats line 112 in my printout, the 
poster is using a widows box for a buffer.

Then he talks about the partitions on /dev/mmcblk0p1 which fdisk shows 
almost nothing:

Disk /dev/mmcblk0p1: 41 MiB, 42991616 bytes, 83968 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x00000000

No partitions, so  much of the rest isn't applicable.


Cheers, Gene Heskett
