**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Feb 10 02:59:57 2011 Feb 10 04:18:17 Tootoot222: stock guruplug plus uboot is 128k with another 128k reserved for vars, 1M reserved for it though Feb 10 04:20:08 compiled with more stuff like esata support, it's still under 256k, plus the 128k for vars is only 384k Feb 10 04:20:58 2M NOR is actually overkill :) Feb 10 04:39:26 mdm2k: i wish they had put like 5 or 6mb, that way you could store the kernel on it Feb 10 04:39:31 and maybe an initrd Feb 10 04:56:32 * mdm2k stores the kernel and initrd on /boot on esata, very convenient due to similarity to grub Feb 10 04:57:45 though I had to fix a timing issue in uboot to make it reliably initialize the esata controller Feb 10 07:41:38 Tootoot222: then i will store my whole system on the 2mb flash Feb 10 07:41:44 lol Feb 10 07:42:02 it would be good to have it as a really small recovery busybox Feb 10 07:42:09 if you break all your external devices Feb 10 07:42:22 (although i suppose they don't want you to mess with the microsd anyway) Feb 10 07:42:27 will the internal µSD be different from the external devices? Feb 10 07:42:40 i mean, uboot-wise Feb 10 07:42:45 not afaik Feb 10 07:42:54 it's even on it's own little daughter board Feb 10 07:43:08 so it would appear as just another device Feb 10 07:43:42 so apart from the default settings, it's just like booting from the other sd or the esata or the usb (if it works) Feb 10 07:43:58 yup Feb 10 07:44:05 sd is pretty fast about coming online Feb 10 07:44:12 and since it should be "always on" Feb 10 07:44:26 there shouldn't be any timing problems with it Feb 10 07:50:32 yeah, my sheevaplug booted from sd for a while, never a problem Feb 10 07:50:36 i moved to the NAND though Feb 10 07:50:38 just because Feb 10 07:57:16 also what system can fit in 2mb Feb 10 07:57:16 ? Feb 10 07:59:25 probably nothing Feb 10 07:59:30 :( Feb 10 07:59:37 that's why i was saying it would have been nice if they had it made it like 5mb Feb 10 07:59:40 or 10mb Feb 10 07:59:44 you mean 8 Feb 10 07:59:45 or 16 Feb 10 07:59:49 then you could fit a kernel + a recovery system **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Feb 11 02:59:57 2011
