[crisos] USB Drive Partition

["Michael S. Klapheke" <mklaphek@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Team,

I seem to have really goofed something up.  I was trying to partition the
USB stick (using the MMC example); however, I can't seem to mount the drive.

Here what I get under fdisk:

root@CrisOs:/# fdisk /dev/sda1

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda1: 2063 MB, 2063581184 bytes
64 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1015 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 3968 * 512 = 2031616 bytes

     Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1p1               1         800     1587169   83  Linux
/dev/sda1p2             801        1015      426560   82  Linux swap /
Solaris

Command (m for help): q

But when I go to make the swap file or mount the other partition, I get the
following:

root@CrisOs:/# mkswap /dev/sda1p2
/dev/sda1p2: No such file or directory
root@CrisOs:/# mount /dev/sda1p1 /mnt/usbdrive
mount: mounting /dev/sda1p1 on /mnt/usbdrive failed
root@CrisOs:/#

Can someone please help?

Thanks!

Mike

Hi.  I have a general question (I hope that this is the right place for it).
I have installed a few apps and run out of space on my Fox 8/32.  I have a 2
GB USB drive which I would like to use but I don't know how to tell the ipkg
to send the apps to the USB drive.  I'm also not sure what dependencies I
would need to fix installing apps here instead of on the main Foxboard
memory.

Any guidance is appreciated.

Thanks!
