Title: Debian With Xqt On C3000
Post by: orange on January 05, 2005, 01:42:41 pm
Hi all!

Didnt realy know where this fits so I post here....
(what about a Debian-ARM  Forum?)

I finally got Debian running with Xqt on my 3k   (as a Linux Noob I'm very proud of my self and a BIG thx to all of you who made this possible)

I run the Debian from a 512 MB SD Card now I would like to mount the internal hdd of my SL-C3000 when I start Pocketworkstation and swap on it. Is that possible without reformating the hdd and how?

I guess this would extend the lifetime of the SD Card?

thx

It is possible to swap into a file on ext3. Unfortunatelly, I didn' tried it.

thx for your replys

I followed this debianXqtWiki (http://wiki.debian.net/index.cgi?PocketWorkstation-XQT) yes Qtopa is still working

edit: darkloran I looked in to your link that is what I want to do but for the debian the problem is that I cant mount hda3 in the Debian I ever get:

Code: [Select]
mount: special device /dev/hda3 does not exist
I think that is because I run it from the SD card cuz I want to keep the formating of the MicroDrive as they are
