Wouldn't mobile devices with flash-based storage be better off using an adapted filesystem layer, such as UBI ? Patching every application to avoid writing to the filesystem does not sound like the right way to handle this. Besides, although it is a most sensible choice, there is no guarantee at all that /tmp will be a RAM filesystem and $HOME will not. -- Laurent _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
