How can I mount an iso-image on iLiad?
Title says it all. Is this possible?
Why do I want to mount an iso-image? Because it takes ages to copy 20k files to CF [digital html archive of German computer magazine c't]. Well, iLiad has got a mount binary. On a destop PC I type: Code:
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/of/image.iso /path/to/mount/to Code:
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /mnt/cf/iso/image.iso /mnt/cf/iso Last edited by yokos; 01-19-2007 at 11:37 AM. Reason: non-native English speaker ;-) |

The kernel is missing loopback device support.
kernel config excerpt: Code:
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP is not set Last edited by Matthijs; 01-22-2007 at 08:51 AM. Reason: Add more info |

So, for updating content on a removable media it's the PC that is the limiting factor. Regarding battery life I really can't see that the forced sync after updating the manifest file can't really have any big impact. |
