I agree it is a showstopper for a beta, that is what alphas are for. I 
would not know how to reproduce it though, as I don't have access to 
source nor an environment to run a VM.

I have not quite understood the environment it takes to reproduce the 
error. All my CF are much too small to hold the entire image content and 
I am of the firm conviction that any routine trying to unpack the 
complete image is gross bogosity, YMMV.

Anyway, my charger is lost, so I need to get a new one. Then I might be 
able to look at the code though I might not be able to reproduce the 
bug.. (no CF, no VM)

Yes it is weird, but I doubt it's a kernel driver bug.
Pls have a look yourself, I'd consider it as a showstopper, because it breaks 
a mostly working install routine from ISO to sda.

This is completely weird, AFAIK the code does not make a difference

Another observation: it only happens with vfat formated sda1, formating with 
ext[234] doesn't show this error.

Re: [leaf-devel] init problem sda1 still mounted

2016-04-10 Thread Andrew
Trouble is present when install script installs data on pre-formatted 
flash, or when it formats flash by itself?

When script formats flash - it sets root dir size to 1024, and all is 
work OK.

When flash was formatted by calling mkfs.vfat w/o args - file copying 
fails because rootdir becomes full.

 From other side, we may place packages in subdirectory, and there'll be 
no troubles with FAT in future :)

128MB DOM and 256-512MB flash works OK.

As I understood, trouble happens on flash that is formatted manually...

First IMHO a technical pb should not be solved with assumptions about user 
behaviours or usage of LEAF.
Second, the Packages size is *one* limiting factor, using long names (>8.3) is 
another one. And  I don't want be to restricted to DOS 8.3 naming
limitations on a project I do for fun and get rid of it since I left DOS in 
the eighties of the last century.

We do have a solution without restricting ourself to an ancient file system.

I'm talking about install.sh to install LEAF from an LEAF  ISO image onto the 
storage media , where the process of installation is totally within a Linux 
environment and under our control.

No _reasonable_ user has that many packages in use. Our images have just

Maybe, but then it requires some *X system to build it. I am thinking in 
the other direction. I _believe_ we have many reduntant packages and 
quite a number could be dropped. This would even make the build process 
quite a bit faster.

It will not help, if a user loads more packages than the ~80MB limit, or less 
if he'll add a unknown amount packages with long names(?), from a packages 
repository.

It's a flaw, we have to solve otherwise.

We solved that limitation in install.sh, though I don't know what happens if a 
user installs from ISO image to a 1GB partition, with a command setting root-
dir-entries to 1024 - for FAT32 it's to 0/ignored. 

Probably the solution should be to make ext2/3/4 the default instead of 
VFAT...?

Yes I guess this is possible. Probably something that is not checked in

Need to look into linuxrc, where this should be umounted. As I forgot 
the charger for my other laptop, I have no access to the source code, sorry.

On the otherr tread about the amount of directory/FAT table entries. 
Nobody will ever need all the LEAF packages, so copying all of them is 
plain crazyness. Upgrade could provide a solution, elsse maybe the 
images should just hold the basic packages and we should point to a 
package repository. This would make thesee errors go away.
