I did not digged deeply but ext3 for me is too slow, I returned to |
| 9 |
ext2 without trying to tune it. |

Using NFS for /var/tmp is a good idea as it eliminates dangerous |
| 11 |
write/rewrite to SD card, but you cannot take the freerunner with you |
| 12 |
for many hours/days/weeks! |
| 13 |
I setupped a qemu-system-arm box on my server farm that compiles |
| 14 |
binary packages for freerunner, it's slow but faster than freerunner, |
| 15 |
when it finished I emerge -gK packages I need. |
| 16 |

| 17 |
I hope I'll have the sheeva plug in the next month hoping I will be |
| 18 |
able to compile very fast. |

Ah! a problem with the qemubox is that I was not able to find an |
| 21 |
updated kernel, so if you update glibc with new kernel-headers it will |
| 22 |
happens strange things (eg. svn does not works anymore with neon). |
