This is on a Lemaker BananaPro SoC board running on Armbian. There is one partition on it and it's EXT4 that takes up the entire 32Gb MicroSD card. Not NTFS. There are some more replies on this thread I need to read after I send this, but this SoC card boots off this MicroSD card and the entire root filesystem is on it. The MicroSD card is the boot and system drive.
