So I am saying Try moving jffs2 and sqfsh before switch_root, not only
/tmp.
You may need to change their mount-points. For example,
# mkdir /jffs2 /sqfsh /tmp
# mount ... /tmp
# mount ... /jffs2
# mount ... /sqfsh
# mount ... /aufs
# mount -o move /tmp /aufs/tmp
# mount -o move /jffs2 /aufs/tmp/jffs2
# mount -o move /sqfsh /aufs/tmp/sqfsh
# swtich_root ...
I was doing something similar only before. it was like this
mount ... /tmp
mount ... /tmp/jffs2
mount ... /tmp/sqfsh
mount ... /aufs
mount -o move /tmp /aufs/tmp
switch_root
and now even though it wouldn't make any difference i tried even ur
suggestion
mount ... /tmp
mount ... /tmp/jffs2
mount ... /tmp/sqfsh
mount ... /aufs
mount -o move /tmp/jffs2 /aufs/tmp/jffs2
mount -o move /tmp/sqfsh /aufs/tmp/sqfsh
switch_root
mount -o move are successful both the time. however after doing switch_root
what i see using mount(8) is
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,relatime)
/dev/mtdblock2 on /tmp/jffs2 type jffs2 (rw,relatime)
/dev/loop0 on /tmp/sqfsh type squashfs (ro,relatime)
aufs on / type aufs (rw,relatime,si=c50d132a)
/proc on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,mode=622)
none on /tmp type ramfs (rw,relatime)
Which looks exactly as expected from the previous condition
you listed before the move.
What do you want different about it?
Yes there are two file systems mounted on /
Which is expected, the kernel supplied one (type rootfs)
and you over-mounted it with one (type aufs).
I have to ask, what else do you want?
Mike
You can see the version string with release-date in the boot-time
message from kernel, or include/linux/aufs_type.h.
If you run git-clone after 2011-08-02, then it must the last version
which is OK.
Oh okay but mine says 2011-08-01 so does that mean i have the older
version? and do i need to update?
Ah, you are writing only text/html and the text/plain part is generated
by your MUA, right? What is your MUA (mail reader)? It seems broken.
But I never mean you should fix it nor report it its deverloper. Of
course, I never mean stop you using it.
yeah i'm gmail actually and probably that's why its creating such
troubles apologies! :(
