Hi, Wolf
I don't if this works for you, but here is how I load some external modules
after booting:
On your foxboard, there is a special directory located at
/etc/init.d/boottime
When the FoxBorad has booted _all_ programs found in this directory are run
from the script
/bin/start_ok.sh
So all I had to do was create a new script
/etc/init.d/boottime/load_modules
--cut--------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# File load_modules
# this script loads my own modules after booting the board
insmod iowarrior
insmod spinwarrior
--cut------------------------------------------------------------
and make the script executeable :
chmod a+x /etc/init.d/boottime/load_modules
So you simply have to create a script that mounts your Flash-drives and put it
in the '/etc/init.d/boottime' directory.
