WOW LVM on a phone :D LVM could be the solution, your idea is good and here is mine. Due to uboot i don't think that an initrd could be done, but we can make the following (tell me if i'm crazy): boot to a single partition /dev/mmcblk0p1 with a minimal system (kernel with lvm inside, sbin dir with mount, chroot and the lvm bins), make a menu in something like courses or similar, and then chroot to the choosen partition and continue booting. Does this make sense? Pietro _______________________________________________ support mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
