Good to hear it wasn't my code. :-) I'm suspecting your unionfs partition may be a little funky. If you want to use the 0.5 branch, today as-is, I would suggest you make a separate partition for the keydisk. 1) start with Darrick's runnix.imb.gz and create a fresh flash card. 2) boot, and with fdisk add partitions 2 (+128M) and 3 (rest of disk) 3) reboot, and do a genunion on the partition 2 and genkd on partition 3. (If the 0.5 genunion asks to generate the keydisk, say no) 4) edit your ...run.conf KCMD line in the FAT16 partition 1 defining asturw= and kd= Now, put altweb in the /mnt/kd/altweb/ directory (HTTPS pointing there). I feel this is the most robust configuration for the current 0.5 branch. > I assume from now on I'll use altweb, rather than altweb-update? > Never sure of what the difference was. They are identical, except altweb-update.tar expands in-place (./) while altweb.tar expands in the altweb/ directory. With altweb-update you can do: tar xzvf altweb-update.tar.gz -C /any/arbitrary/directory/ will place the contents in /any/arbitrary/directory/ while: tar xzvf altweb.tar.gz -C /any/arbitrary/directory/ will place the contents in /any/arbitrary/directory/altweb/ > Thanks again for the wonderful interface. Thanks, it's my pleasure.
