2006/8/29, Henri Sivonen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
What's the difference between the rootfs installed by default on
devices that ship with OS2006 and Maemo_Dev_Platform_v2.0_armel-
rootfs.jffs2 (besides USB networking and root access being enabled)?
What does "easier debugging" mean besides root access?
Or to ask another way, is there any reason why I wouldn't want to
flash in the developer rootfs? Is saving space the only reason why
the device doesn't ship with a rootfs equivalent to the developer one?
Simply put, the developer rootfs swaps (most if not all)
non-opensource components (applications etc) to debug symbols and some
developer-oriented tools (mmc/usbnet plugins and so on).
You do not want to flash the developer rootfs on a device you plan to
actually use for anything other than developing applications I guess.
