Dear Jon, Thanks for your suggestion, it working properly now.
I write this mini how-to for anyone who want to use HD to store log messages: Suppose you already install leaf on /dev/hda1 (DOS filesystem, 512MB) Download and install hdspp.lrp package # lrpkg -i hdsupp Then create Linux partition # fdisk /dev/hda Command (m for help): n <ENTER> Command action e extended p primary partition (1-4) p <ENTER> Partition number (1-4): 2 <ENTER> First cylinder (132-973, default 132): <ENTER> Using default value 132 Last cylinder or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (132-973, default 973): +512M <ENTER> Command (m for help): w (Write table to disk and exit) Now /dev/hda2 Linux partition was created, then we need to format it to use ext3 as filesystem. # mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda2 Beside, leaf did not support ext3 filesystem by default, we need to add following modules: jbd.o, ext3.o Copy jbd.o and ext3.o to /boot/lib/modules folder. Then add following lines to /boot/etc/modules file # e3 /linuxrc jbd ext3 Finally edit linuxrc file, so that it use hard disk to save log files instead of RAM disk. # e3 /linuxrc #qt mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /var/log -o size=$log_size qt mount -t ext3 /dev/hda2 /var/log Remember to backup initrd , then reboot. Hope this help and thanks Jon again. ^_^ Regards, Chris Lee ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
