Robert, looking through voyage-sync: despite the word 'sync' appearing throughout, I think it isn't actually doing a file system sync, it is just copying the writeable layer (tmpfs/aufs) to the underlying layer e.g. flash drive.
That may not sync for some time, or shutdown. How about doing this for an experiment: remountrw /etc/init.d/voyage-sync sync sync remountro Rodney Robert Rawlins wrote: ... # apart from /var/tmp and /var/log, add extra directories to sync from tmpfs VOYAGE_SYNC_DIRS="/etc/thinkblue" And this appears to work well, any changes in this directory are committed to the disk on reboot. However, trying to sync this directory manually like follows: remountrw /etc/init.d/voyage-sync sync remountro The commands run just fine, however, if I then simulate a power loss by pulling the plug and restarting the system then the changes are not there when the system comes back to life. ... _______________________________________________ Voyage-linux mailing list [email protected] http://list.voyage.hk/mailman/listinfo/voyage-linux
