Dual boot setup

The mkcramfs would be useful for compressing reference material on an SD or CF card and then accessing the material as if they were regular files.  Where can I get a copy of the mkcramfs that Derekp mentions?

Hmm, I'd like to play around with this, but I can't find any of the scripts mentioned... can anyone point me there? And a basic question: What about the packages installed to ram, are they usable by every image? They should, if the symlinks are in / , right?

Thanks, cheers

You can find mkcramfs in the zgcc package - details on http://s91215199.onlinehome.us/zaurus/zgcc2install.html

I have to agree with Pyrates, I can't find the download links for any of these scripts or packages.  I am very interested in testing this out and don't want to have to reinvent the wheel piecing the information from this thread together and writing my own.  Help!

I fully support Pyrates and sonicbuddha.  I would love to try this out.

Thanks to anyone with guidance.

Ugh, I hate to have two threads doing esentially the same thing, but... at least I can say I didn't start it.  And 6 pages seems like enough and time to start fresh..  
klrussell, pyrates, a new thread has been started on this subject with a little bit more info.  None of it is currently tested, but check it out.  Besides, Stubear has offered to repost some of the scripts he has already tested.  Lets put it all together and m'be get a "how to" on ZUG when we are finished!

Where can I find modrom-dualboot.ipk? I have searched and searched but cannot find. This must be a real loser question because it seems everyone else can find it.

Thanks

... Then, install oz2sd.ipk.

Where do we get theese files from?

Do you think your dual boot method would work on a sl-6000l?
Do you think it would work with the Guylhem ROM as the second OS?
