I've followed the end-user documentation on doc.astlinux.org and also
reviewed the original AstLinux user guide written by Kristian.
The new documentation makes no mention of using a separate USB drive; when
followed, my CF card was partitioned into 3:
> pbx ~ # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 120.1M 1.5M 112.4M 1% /
/dev/root 3.1M 944.0k 2.0M 31% /oldroot
/dev/hda2 120.1M 1.5M 112.4M 1% /oldroot/mnt/asturw
none 128.0M 83.6M 44.4M 65% /oldroot/mnt/asturo
none 120.1M 1.5M 112.4M 1% /
none 200.0k 4.0k 196.0k 2% /dev
none 4.9M 112.0k 4.8M 2% /var
none 9.8M 72.0k 9.7M 1% /tmp
/dev/hda3 3.5G 16.2M 3.3G 0% /mnt/kd
/dev/hda1 127.7M 33.9M 93.8M 27% /oldroot/cdrom
Kristian's document talks about using the command "genkd" to partition and
use an external USB drive for /mnt/kd. Is this no longer the methodology
followed for AstLinux 0.7.2? I tried both (web interface first, then genkd),
but on reboot I see that only the /dev/hdaX is being used--no reference to
/dev/sdaX on either the Status page or in the output of df -h (listed
above).
My apologies for these questions, but I'm trying to understand the
discrepancies between different sets of docs.
cheers,
Shamus
