Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
...still fiddling with Linux on my ASUS MeMO Pad 7... ;) |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Current status: |
| 6 |
SDCard: |
| 7 |
Back from extFAT (toooooo slllooooooww) to FAT32 |
| 8 |
On this SDCard two file, each 4GB in sizse and formatted ext4 |
| 9 |
One conatins currently the complete Linux (used as chroot environment) |
| 10 |
The second one contains a copy of /usr (that is, the second image contains /usr - |
| 11 |
not only its ontents). |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I finally want to get rid of the /usr on the first file to get more |
| 14 |
space for upgrades, intstallations and such. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
While using the chrooted environment (completly booted from the first |
| 17 |
file) I did |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
mount /dev/sdcard /mnt |
| 20 |
losetup /dev/loop(x) /mnt/frstfile.img |
| 21 |
mount /dev/loop(x) /image |
| 22 |
mount --bind /image/usr /usr |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
This way the /usr of the first image file was somehow |
| 25 |
"knocked off" and the (identical) /usr of the second image |
| 26 |
file tooks its place. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
It works so far. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Now the problem: |
| 31 |
How can I manipulate /etc/fstab (and may be others) in a |
| 32 |
way that /usr of the second image file permanently replaces |
| 33 |
/usr of the first image file AND gives me the change to remove |
| 34 |
/usr of the first image file? |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
I want to prevent copying the image files from and to the Android |
| 37 |
tablet PC and manipulate them "offline" on my PC because its |
| 38 |
a time eating task and its inconvenient (sorry for being that lazy ;) |
| 39 |

Thank you very much in advance for any help! |

Have a nice sunday!!! :) |
