Re: Patch for Moblin Image Creator -- add / entry in fstab

2008-01-18 Thread Matt Zimmerman
Better to use a placeholder for the device name, if it doesn't actually
correspond to the mount.  Otherwise, this is very confusing to developers.

e.g.:

+print >> fstab_file, "unionfs  / unionfs
defaults0 0"

RE: Patch for Moblin Image Creator -- add / entry in fstab

2008-01-17 Thread Du, Alek
Michael,

Thanks for the patch. Initial test shows although the system's real root is 
unionfs containing ro squashfs plus rw ext3 /dev/sda2, adding the line does no 
harm to system. System shows a /dev/sda2 mount to /, but according to 
/proc/mounts, there is no such mount. It seems an ideal workaround.

JohnV, Rob,
Any thoughts regarding to the patch?

Thanks,
Alek

Alek,

Attached is a patch to Moblin Image Creator that adds an entry to fstab
for the / ext3 partition. This fixes a bug where GnomeVFS will not work
properly without such an entry.

Thanks,
Michael
