Does anyone know a way of changing the root partition size of a touch

I'm having space issues when needing to install large numbers of build
deps for development. I've cleared the apt cache and a few other
non-essential folders, but a fresh install is only leaving about 500MB
of the 2GB root partition free.

This is one of the few reasons the cdimage image is still being produced, for people wanting to use the device for development. Keep in mind that the cdimage image is not a valid testing target though.

Any other solutions anyone can think of to get around this issue would
also be appreciated.

I personally bought a chromebook for building and have also embraced cross compiling.
