Hi, I have created an initial UBIFS 8.2 image that can be used for testing and playing with.
See http://wiki.laptop.org/go/UBIFS_initial_experiments for information on how this was created and some of my intial notes. If you just want to download and run: * Make sure your XO has security disabled * Make sure your XO is running the latest OFW. The best way to do this is to update it to 8.2.0. * Download the following files to a USB stick: http://dev.laptop.org/~dsaxena/ubi_test/data.img http://dev.laptop.org/~dsaxena/ubi_test/nand.img * Boot the laptop with USB stick and escape into the OFW prompt. * Run: ok dev nand : write-blocks write-pages ; dend write-blocks isn't unique # You can ignore this ok update-nand u:\data.img * At this point OFW will erase the flash and copy the contents of the nand.img file to flash. When complete you can simply reboot the system. If you want to know a bit more about UBIFS, why we're looking at it, and the overall impact a switch over would have, see the following page that is still under development: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/UBIFS_on_XO Thanks to Mitch Bradley for his help with OFW and Erik Garrison for his OFW image builder script. ~Deepak -- Deepak Saxena - Kernel Developer - [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
