Hi

a new block mount has been added to openwrt. here is a short howto for using it.

you can do "block info" to get the same output that blkid delivered

you can do "block mount" to mount all devices (same as what /etc/init.d/fstab restart" used to do

if you run "block detect" you will get a sample uci file for the currently attached block devices.

you can do "block detect > /etc/config/fstab" to store it

a sample config looks as follows

config 'global'
        # mount swap devices that dont have their own config section
        option  anon_swap       '0'
        # mount block devices that dont have their own config section   
        option  anon_mount      '0'
        # automatically mount block devices when they appear
        option  auto_swap       '1'
        # automatically mount swap devices when they appear
        option  auto_mount      '1'
        # wait X seconds before trying to mount root devices on boot
        option  delay_root      '0'
        # run e2fsck on device prior to a mount
        option  check_fs        '0'

# my swap partition i can either pass device or uuid
config 'swap'
        option  device  'sda1'
        option  uuid    'd3c87695-886f-4579-ae94-0a3bb3eb6046'

# my pivotroot device (ext4)
config 'mount'
        option  target  '/'
        option  uuid    '998d4bfc-81b5-469a-be2a-999ed2b81d88'

# and data partition (vfat)
config 'mount'
        option  target  '/data'
        option  uuid    'e10e-6812'



if you want to use an overlay extroot, please use a section as follows
config 'mount'
        option  target  '/overlay'
        option  uuid    '998d4bfc-81b5-469a-be2a-999ed2b81d88'


if someone could update the wiki to hold this info i would be grateful

        John

P.S.: i will close all block mount related tickets in trac now as i think they are all related to the API having changed slightly. if you think your bug still exists after reading this howto, lease reopen them
