On the topic of aufs, i've had all sorts of trouble trying to get a working aufs-3.16/aufs-util-3.16 pair to build though, I even went to the main repositry. As it's the last problem I have for 00-minimal could you have a look please, it's clearly above my level of competance. You just need to remember that aufs-util must be built first otherwise aufs itself fails to build properly.

And while were on aufs, I noticed that the aufs2 and aufs2-util packages have the same build number. I ?think, if I am starting to understand your build system correctly, this would cause aufs2 to attempt to be built before aufs2-util and that is the wrong way around, aufs2 should fail as this is, maybe a quick fix is to drop the build number by one for aufs-util to ensure it is build first.

...........................

From a lot of research, and in the end, a queery to an aufs3 'name' I was pointed to this [url]http://repository.timesys.com/buildsources/k/kernel/kernel-3.6/linux-3.6-aufs.patch[/url]. It's long, but the most important bit I was pointed to is apparently this, so i've extracted it:-

+
+The aufs3-linux tree includes the whole linux mainline GIT tree,
+git://git.kernel.org/.../torvalds/linux.git.
+And you cannot select CONFIG_AUFS_FS=m for this version, eg. you cannot
+build aufs3 as an external kernel module.

As I understand this, it means that T2 needs to have it included with the linux package build and explains why my attempt to build it externally using somethink along the line that aufs2 was built always has failed.

It also means I have no idea where to go from here and i think Rene or one of the others in his team will need to deal with it. I just don't have the knowledge of T2!


thanks for putting up with me and all your work with keeping T2 going
regards
jon
