Hi Eli, Moblin supports two types of Live images - LiveCD and LiveUSB, only LiveUSB images have persistent (i.e. overlay) capability, and it sounds the pre-built development image is a LiveCD image, so you may need to install to your local hard drive to make any changes.
The "Boot and Install" to another USB stick or external USB disks are not supported at the moment, however you could still workaround it by installing to a USB key and adding 'rootdelay=x" (where x is the delay time in seconds, in my case, I use 10) to the kernel command line in grub.conf, and edit the rootfs in the /etc/fstab to the correct device manually to boot it successfully from a USB based device. FYI. Best Regards, Tonny -----Original Message----- From: Hernandez, Eli Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2009 1:44 AM To: Tzeng, Tonny; [email protected] Subject: RE: Developer Moblin2 image Tonny, thanks. Looks like any changes to Live Image for Moblin2 are not persistent - do not see dev changes/setup after boot. Is there a Live image which will take in and make changes persist across boots? Another question I have is whether a LIVE image from USB and "boot and Install" to another USB stick?

Please reference the Moblin SDK page http://moblin.org/documentation/moblin-sdk for more detail instructions. FYI.

Can anyone please advise what will be most appropriate dev env to start with? Also is there a Moblin2 image to get which would include such dev env? (e.g. gcc compiler, libs, plugins, etc.) Thanks Eli _______________________________________________ Moblin dev Mailing List [email protected] To manage or unsubscribe from this mailing list visit: https://lists.moblin.org/mailman/listinfo/dev or your user account on http://moblin.org once logged in.
