Angstrom & OpenZaurus / New Hentges Rom Release Candidate

« on: August 07, 2005, 09:58:52 am »

Nice work on the ROM Hentges

Has anyone got the cardfs to work from a compactflash card?  I'm installing the latest Hentges T3 ROM for a friend on his SL-5500 (256MB CF card), but I just can't seem to make it work.  OPIE boots up fine but only the non-cardfs apps are available (eg. konsole plus a few preferences and applets).  The same ROM images work fine on my 5500 where I'm using a 256MB SD card for cardfs.

Any pointers as to debugging the problem?  I can't seem to find how the cardfs system is mounted.. is it a pivot_root ? I did a quick scan through the init.d scripts but nothing jumped out at me.

I can't say with authority, but I think I have been successful by opening a konsole and typing

# ipkg-link mount /media/cf

I was planning to add that to an /etc/init.d script so it takes on reboot.  I am not an expert; I've only been doing OZ for about 4 days.  I am using the Hentges ROM on a 5500 though.
