I'm going to be installing on a soekris box (probably on flash media),
and I'm trying to figure out what the bare minimum I need to install.
Is there somewhere I can see what files are included in the
base40.tgz, etc40.tgz etc... so I know what don't fill up the flash
card at the start?
They are going to be a pf firewall, and ipsec vpn (with one of them
running poptop for roadwarriors).
Any pitfalls I should watch out for on this? fstab options etc..?
After reading many posts on misc about the reliability of CF and since
1 GB compact flash is cheap these days I didn't bother with any of the
above and just did an install picking the sets that I needed, avoiding
x*, comp, and game:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ethant# df -k
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/wd0a 742540 506502 198912 72% /
mfs:24827 15855 1 15062 0% /tmp
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ethant# cat /etc/fstab
/dev/wd0a / ffs rw,noatime 1 1
swap /tmp mfs rw,-s=32768,nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0
Nothing fancy. noatime is the only thing different from a normal
install for me other than the fact that I split the filesystem into /,
/usr, /tmp, /var, and /home on larger disks.
