Re: [leaf-devel] lwp (webconf) packages
Hi Mike, The problem with this kind of tools is that they expect a real USB-key available with a certain size. The problem is that we need to create and image where a few aspects are uncertain: -The size of the usb-key (Mbytes) -Geometry We need a generic tool which creates a bootable image that can be installed on any USB key.

IIRC, a USB keys can be formatted as a floppy type device (ie: one partition), or as a HDD (ie: 4 primary partitions). It should be possible to make an image that has an HDD partition table with a smallish (ie: maybe 8 Megs or so, still a *LOT* bigger than a floppy) FAT partition containing the boot files as the first partition. The remaining space could be unused, or formatted and used once the LEAF system was up and running. This should make it unnecessary to know the size of the USB key (as long as the key is bigger than the boot partition size). The geometry issue shouldn't generally be a problem...the CHS geometry of the FAT filesystem is essentially embedded in the partition table, so would be written when the image is burned onto the USB key. - -- Charles Steinkuehler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEGfkvLywbqEHdNFwRAqB2AKDQiY+5KdpXe0Y0EftNNfHu15qZBACgvP32 iKxLSWjcFowQvjRx6JRNK7A= =SZN2 -END PGP SIGNATURE- --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
