That begs three questions. 1) So, since I couldn't copy the entire tree to disk (see first post), either I did something wrong and I'm trying to find out why cp isn't copying certain empty directories *out* of the cramfs, or the docs need to be updated with appropriate mkdir statements to flesh out the resultant missing empty directories. 2) Did you mean see mkfs.cramfs.c? I don't have any man page for it installed on Fermi SL 4. Anyone else? I was hoping not to have to read raw C source code just to find out how to redo an important part of SIS' bootup procedure. If I have to in order to flesh out the docs, I'll do it, but first I'll check to see if there's better user-friendly info out there already. 3) Is that truly a bug in mount, where cramfs mount shows as rw?
