Flash size?

I used win32 disk imager and the latest Android image on a 32 GB card.  The system runs like a dream, but only reports 4 GB of usable space (it detects 32 GB of flash, interestingly).

So I popped the card back in my reader on my pc and noticed that the disk has 3 partitions--I'm guessing a small boot partition, the android partition, and the usable flash.  The remaining 20+ GB are simply unpartitioned.

How do I gain access to that extra space?

Sounds like you used a dd image. If you can use the Phoenix tool and its image it will utilize the whole flash. It is not always easy but...
