Lost /mnt/ram (empty)
« on: October 07, 2004, 08:38:38 am »
Hrm, This is the second time this has happened.  First time I had to reinstall my openzaurus image.

Basically I can not run anything that was stored on /mnt/ram.  Infact, it appears empty with the exception of a usr/lib/ipkg/* directories which have no files in them.

/mnt/ram also does not show up on the System Info utility.  Any suggestions on how to get this back. I am not sure what I have to remount, if anything.   Cheers.

Any circumstances.....?

Assuming you've not performed a hard reset (because if you have the partition will have been wiped) try 'mount /mnt/ram'

No hard reboot.  The battery way close to dying, but if I load up Apkg and try to install something it only list the REMAINING space I have, and not the entire 16 megs (which i assume it would if everything was wiped free)...

tried mount /mnt/ram

mount: can't find /mnt/ram in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
