The shell I get dropped to does not contain e2fsck,it appears to just have the busybox commandset available. isn't the Filesystem squashfs for the astlinux.run file? The busybox version of fsck doesn't want to get around there not being an fstab file created no matter what variant of the command I enter..... I wish the system was a little more verbose as to why the image wont mount..... im building up 1895 now.. I will see what it does -Christopher
