I copy _all_ .lrp files (with the exception of initrd) to another partition, I rename the new initrd.lrp to, lets say, initnew.lrp, which must be reflected in the syslinux.cfg or GRUB menu file. Also I copy the new kernel to something like "linuznew", of course this must be reflected in the boot config. Using the serial interface I can select the boot configuration.

I believe in Bering uClibc there is hdsupp.lrp which should have fdisk. So you should be able to add another partition. Beware of touching the active partition though. You could also prepare a CF on any old linux box, then make a raw image and copy the whole shebang to the running WRAP and then pray it will boot :-( . I normally have one board in the open for testing purposes :-) cheers Erich ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
