| 16:52.13 | mnemoc | wmat: I can't get it working... :( I'm prepending vga=0x311 fine, but vesafb doesn't "get it" ... but when I append it from the bootloader it works |
| 16:52.16 | mnemoc | it's weird |
| 16:52.52 | mnemoc | can vesafb be reading it _before_ the get merged? |
| 16:53.40 | mnemoc | btw, x86 :) |
| 17:02.56 | wmat | mnemoc: try passing the decimal value vga=785 |
| 17:04.24 | wmat | see, http://wiki.antlinux.com/pmwiki.php?n=HowTos.VgaModes |
| 17:22.05 | mnemoc | wmat: the very same vga=0x.. works when passed from the bootloader, but i need the image to choose it's settings by itself, but i'll test |

| 19:18.57 | speakman | Any links on how to structure the file system on embedded devices? I used to have two partitions; one read-only for all software, and one writable for saving local data and preferences. But that seems like a pretty old solution these days. How does Android and other embedded system do it? And how do they handle the "factory reset" feature? |
| 19:23.47 | Russ | I dunno, /tmp and /dev are pretty much always tmpfs |
| 19:23.57 | Russ | / is usually ro |
| 19:24.22 | Russ | /var is a good canidate for a rw partition that can be wiped for "factory reset" |
| 19:27.08 | mnemoc | speakman: http://dpaste.com/274864/ <--- android's mess |
| 19:29.01 | speakman | I'm thinking of using UnionFS to mount a RW-partition on top of the "firmware" RO root fs. |
| 19:29.28 | speakman | Then the RW partition could be erased when doing factory reset |
| 19:30.59 | speakman | mnemoc: a read only yaffs2-partition? |
| 19:36.34 | mnemoc | i'm a noob, but the fs choice depends on your storage media and even how much memory and cpu power you have. no magic bullet |

| 19:39.17 | mnemoc | speakman: http://dpaste.com/274866/ <--- androids / funky hierarchy |
| 19:41.02 | Russ | unionfs seems like a bad overcomplication |
| 19:41.52 | Russ | bind mounts can simplify things |
| 19:49.20 | speakman | Russ: Good point! |
| 19:50.27 | speakman | I see Android symlinks its /etc... that could be done with a bind mount right? |
