KP & All, >>Did you format from Windows? Nop - Debian Sarge 2.6 kernel with msdos,fat & vfat modules loaded
I guess it got to late yesterday. Looking trough my notes I saw that I forgott to format it with mkfs.vfat mkdir /hd mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /hd touch thisisatestwithreallylongfilenames.txt works fine with my image now. I have also changed the syslinux.cfg entries to /dev/sda1:vfat But, I can not get long file names with lrcfg :-( Maybe I just do this to late in the evening. I'll roll another image tomorrow morning - hopefully I get all stuff ironed out then. I guess the reformat will take care of the umbunto issue as well.

I've tested your image and it boots fine - as you siad it has no long names. I think you have to replace "msdos" with "vfat" in syslinux.cfg and leaf.cfg. You also have to mount /dev/sda1 with -t vfat, once it is booted. If I'm doing this with my image it does have long filenames But I had some issues with your image on my WS (ubuntu 5.11): I can't mount your image - wrong fstype and syslinux tells me ./syslinux /dev/sda1 /dev/sda1: this doesn't look like a valid FAT filesystem I have to reformat with mkfs.vfat to make it accessible again to my test runs. So I suspect there is a pb with vfat in your image...? Did you format from Windows? The files on your image don't have long names; but with the changes above, I can create long names on your device. So your half way done :) kp ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
