+== Expand Disk Space for IG Raw PC ===
+
+InstaGENI Raw PCs have 1 TB drives, but by default the disk space allocation is for 16 GBytes, you must test steps to allocate more disk space, as the RAN kernel installation requires ~ 13GB of disk space.
+
+First check to see how available disk resources:
