For me, this is the only step at which I need to be root. If there's a way around it, I haven't bothered to find it.

All, I've got to create a RAM disk for our new system. I've found this little utility called genext2fs the web site is http://sourceforge.net/projects/genext2fs/ <http://sourceforge.net/projects/genext2fs/> but my question. What do other people use to do this? Why should I have to become the root user just to create a RAM disk I can do everything else without becoming root on my development machine. I would like to be able to make this next step as well. Regards, Rod Boyce. ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
