Hi ericshliao,

why did you use dd? Why not just formatting the stuff as antarctica described in ext2 and use rsync -a with the respective excludes to copy the root filesystem?

I made just a backup of my system like this. It might be actually a good idea, if I will be able to boot this from the cf via the 2.4.19 kexec kernel from nalim. I will see, if I find some time the next days to try this.

Best,
Ulno
