Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
i am setting up gentoo a Raspberry (B) following the gentoo wiki [1], |
| 4 |
first i prepare the SD-Card. The wiki links to the instructions over at |
| 5 |
embedded linux wiki [2]. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
I wonder about the disk layout. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Q1: Do i need a swap partition, and if yes is 512m ok? |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
The gentoo wiki creates one, the elinux wiki not. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Q2: Also the Raspberry is likely to be powered down without warning. To |
| 14 |
my belief jounarled filesystems can handle this. I plan to use JFS since |
| 15 |
it works well on my desktop as well. Is there something I could have in |
| 16 |
mind? |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Q3: The gentoo wiki briefly mentions to use squashfs for /usr/portage. |
| 19 |
What will be the benefits of this? |
