This is a bit off topic, but I want to use something like this for booting emdebian linux systems :)
Anyone know of a filesystem image format that is mountable and writable ?? I was thinking of something along the lines of the qcow2 format for QEMU, but something that is mountable by the linux kernel. Essentially I want an ext2/ext3 rootfs (and possibly others) filesystem image that lives on a compact flash card that the linux can mount and use inplace as filesystem. i.e. all modifications would get written back to the filesystem image. I do not want to format and partition the CF card into ext2/ext3 partitions. I want to keep the one FAT partition and have multiple linux filesystem images as files on the FAT partition. Any ideas ??
