Question On Installing Hentges Rom 3.53

[lardman]

If the 64MB are in one partition, it'd be enough for a full cardfs install.

It's also split in half - 32-32Mb

I just upgraded to Mandrake 10.1 over this past weekend so I don't have all my data in it's proper place yet... but IIRC the partition (mtdblock) layout of /root and /home on the C750 and 5600 are 'very' close in size. So I believe the cardfs would install to /home on a C750 and work very well (as it does on my poodle) if that's what your thinking of doing?

There's a thread here somewhere about how well the cardfs fits on the jffs2 partition /home on a poodle.

Sorry, we seem to have hijacked this thread.

here's the output from my c750 (but bear in mind that I'm using Cacko 1.22a) Will that be useful?

Since I do not own a Poodle to check the image myself, I currently consider it "finished" until proven otherwise heh.

Since you mentioned it, I am wondering if someone is planing to fix the sleep button.  At the moment not only does the cancel button put it into sleep mode but so does the right D-pad button, the buttion in the center of the d-pad, and the menu button.

I'm grateful that it doesn't lock up on sleep any more

I think someone with a poodle (and the desire to fix this) should look at the patch which was created for the 5500, and apply the same kind of fixes to the poodle kernel source.

Yes, I've been a bit busy recently though so haven't been able to do anything (yet).
