+ | and created the node with | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | mknod fuse c 10 229 | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | with this, I am able to mount the remote KNOPPIX. | ||
+ | ===== loading KNOPPIX over HTTP ===== | ||
+ | if I start DSL and if does not find the KNOPPIX anywhere, then it gives a emergency shell. | ||
+ | I have written a following script that can be run from that shell and it will load the KNOPPIX on /cdrom/ | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | #!/static/sh | ||
+ | insmod /modules/crc32.o | ||
+ | insmod /modules/8390.o | ||
+ | insmod /modules/mii.o | ||
+ | insmod /modules/ne2k-pci.o | ||
+ | insmod /modules/pcnet32.o | ||
+ | insmod /modules/r8169.o | ||

+ | insmod /modules/af_packet.o | ||
+ | ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 up | ||
+ | ifconfig eth0 up | ||
+ | udhcpc -s /static/udhcpc.sh 1 | ||
+ | insmod /modules/fuse.o | ||
+ | echo "testing networking" | ||
+ | mkdir /ntest | ||
+ | httpfs http://145.116.233.189/reach /ntest | ||
+ | echo "checking content" | ||
+ | cat /ntest/reach | ||
+ | |||
+ | echo "mounting KNOPPIX" | ||
+ | mkdir /cdrom/KNOPPIX | ||
+ | httpfs http://145.116.233.189/KNOPPIX /cdrom/KNOPPIX | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | This script is invoked automatically from linuxrc.\\ | ||
+ | I have also added the busybox in ///static/busybox// and it supports meny commands.\\ | ||
+ | Networking can be tested with __wget__ but one need to give IP address as URL's are not supported right now. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | # wget http://145.116.233.189/reach | ||
+ | # cat reach | ||
+ | |||
+ | # mount | ||
+ | rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 | ||
+ | /dev/root.old / ext2 rw 0 0 | ||
+ | /proc /proc proc rw 0 0 | ||
+ | /dev/pts /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 | ||
+ | httpfs /ntest fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,user_id=0,group_id=0 0 0 | ||
+ | httpfs /cdrom fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,user_id=0,group_id=0 0 0 | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | It shows that KNOPPIX is available and __networking__ is working fine\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Mounting the KNOPPIX ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now, one of the question is when do I call loader.sh from within linuxrc?\\ | ||
+ | Here is the code for [[http://pastebin.com/f265d01b0|linuxrc]]\\ | ||
+ | My guess is that I just need to find correct place, and then it should happen automatically.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Finally, I got it working. | ||
+ | the modified __linuxrc__ file is [[http://pastebin.com/f5eb77a27|here]].\\ | ||
+ | and latest one which works with [http://rom.etherboot.org/share/pravin/pxeknife/]] is [[http://paste.etherboot.org/?page=view&id=1244928477|here]] | ||
