I've downloaded ArchLinux for the Raspberry Pi, but it's a 2GB image.
I've a 1GB SD, which the content should fit on, so I'm trying to resize it.
I've now got to the point where I can create an image file with two
partitions totalling 1GB that mount fine. But after I've dd-ed it to the
SD card I can't mount either of the partitions on the SD card.
