Re: [Gumstix-users] cf card mounting as ext2 format

[Rasmus K. <ras...@gm...>]

Hi Opher

Do:

cd <gumstix-buildroot>
cd build_arm_nofpu
cd linux-<the version of linux you're using>
make ARCH=arm menuconfig

Choose "File sustems"
Choose "Second extended fs support" (so an "M" appears)
Maybe choose "Ext3 journalling file system support", if you like

Recompile (type "make" in the gumstix-buildroot)

Find the ext2.ko file in
gumstix-buildroot/build_arm_nofpu/root/lib/modules/<linux
version>/kernel/fs/ext2

copy the ext2.ko file to your gumstix in /lib/modules/<linux
version>/kernel/fs/ext2

then modprobe ext2

To see the modules you have loaded:

> lsmod



Cheers
Rasmus
