Hello forum members,
I am just trying to build an unplugable kiosk-like info screen based on a raspberry pi 2. So I am running it on piCore-6.1_v7-X image. I managed to automatically establish the wifi connection, and start the browser (kind of - will try to sort that with a second post). I have the problem left, that there are black borders around the screen - by default the pi seems to be set to overscan.
Normally I would try to change that in /boot/config.tct or with raspi-config but on PiCore I can not find any of those.
Some help would be great!
Thanks for reading this.
Best regards,
der Don

Mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 partition. It is the boot partition with config.txt, cmdline.txt, kernel, etc. but unmounted by the system to protect it after booting.

Black borders around the picture means underscan. Not overscan.
Overscan = cropped picture
Underscan = black borders around the picture (to compensate TV overscan for example)
So, what you are looking at is underscan, not overscan.
