# Number of code images on media (1 or 2)
NANO_IMAGES=3D2
This should do it for you. It does it automaticaly to create two images of =
the=20
same size.

> How big it should be for 4GB card?
It depends on your needs. How much you need for your nanobsd installation.=
=20
Check how big it is now and add some space for future. If you will leave=20
enough room you won't need to reflash full disk but only image of one=20
partition/slice.

> Also what is the filesystem referred by  NANO_DATASIZE variable?
If I remember correctly DATASIZE is size of additional partition f.ex. for=
=20
application data that remains untouched between upgrading of nanobsd.
