Hi everyone,
a few weeks ago I got the leaf system working , but I had put
everything on the first "msdos" partition ..
To make it a bit more endurable, I would like to put as much as
possible on the second partition, where I thought to use YAFFS.
Has someone allready some experience with this
Practical to know probably is .. once mounting the file system, I get
this error :
FAT: bogus logical sector size 0
This only happens when I refer the pkgpath to something else as hda1:msdos
(like hda2)
After this, it's just each module (nf!)

Tom,
Did you install the ext2 kernel modules?

Hi Erich
Thanks a lot and also to Eric!
The problem was indeed with the ext2 module not being loaded yet :$
So now I'm just going to use one partition ext2 to do the trick ..
While checking the different filesystems in the available modules, I
noticed however there's no support for YAFFS nor for
One other question, which I fear is a dumb one .. But I can't find it anywhere
To install the ext2 module .. You have to put it in /boot/lib/modules
and then declare it initrd through the LEAF Packages configuration menu..
Well, I see it nowhere in the menu, and I've been through each part of it..
Hello Tom,
It depend on your needs. If you want to load the packages from an ext2 fs,
you have to create your own initrd:
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/bucd-develop.xml.html#id3256747
But if you just want to use an ext2 fs from a running system, you can add
the module to moddb (copy the module
Hi Eric
My plan is indeed to load the packages from an ext2 fs ..
So what I did was the following:
initrd.lrp
initrd.lrp is a different package - it's a compressed, minix formatted
filesystem. To add or change it's content you have to uncompress it and mount
it on a minix formatted mount p

indeed .. for the making of the image I had to use "dd if=initrd.lrp"
instead of "dd if=/dev/zero" I guess ..
So I changed this, and my file is now a lot bigger .. but still 70kb's
smaller then the original file and still blocking on the same

Hi Tom,
My previous mail had a link with the exact commands to execute:

Tom,
initrd.lrp is compressed with gzip; did you uncompress it first?
There's also no need for the mkfs.minix step since you're starting with
an existing minix filesystem in your initial initrd.lrp.
I usually do this:
# zcat initrd.lrp > initrd
# mount -o loop initrd /mnt

Hi eric,
I used those commands from your link .. namely these :
initrd.lrp is a different package - it's a compressed, minix formatted
filesystem. To add or change it's content you have to uncompress it and
mount it on a minix formatted mount point:
dd if=/dev/zero of=initrd bs=1k count=1500

Hi Tom,
Ok, I see. The doc isn't clear about how to extract the contents from the
original initrd:
mv initrd.lrp initrd.gz
gunzip initrd.gz
mount -t minix initrd /mnt -o loop
After that you have the contents from the package in the /mnt directory
You can take a shortcut (instead of creating a f
Thx eric!
That was exactly what I needed!

Both just give a bunch of strange letters and signs
What's the best way to edit?

Forget the last mail please .. while copying the ext2.o I'd messed
