- And to make my life more interesting, the busybox mount is very particular about the order in which you give parameters :-/. | - And to make my life more interesting, the busybox mount is very particular about the order in which you give parameters :-/. | ||
- One more problem faced was that file mounted by httpfs is read-only and hence can't be mounted by //mount -o loop// command in normal modes. It has to be mounted in read-only mode with option //-o loop -o ro//. (Thanks Andytim for suggestion of using "dd". It helped in locating the bug.) | - One more problem faced was that file mounted by httpfs is read-only and hence can't be mounted by //mount -o loop// command in normal modes.

+ | - One more wired observation : I could not locate the the mount used by dsl by default inside minirt24.gz. I checked the static folder, but it was not there. but when I execute mount, it picks up the default //"mount"// which behaves quite differently than the command //"busybox mount"// which is working for me at end. | ||

+ | ==== June - 18 ==== | ||
+ | Spent most of the time in two things. | ||
+ | - Getting the modules, executable for 2.6.19 kernel used by knoppix. I am still trying to hunt down fuse.ko which is to be found no-where in entire ISO :-( | ||
+ | - I was also working on adding more details to BKO homepage, Added following things. | ||
+ | - FAQ for BKO. | ||
+ | - Started to write HOWTO for making BKO bootable USB. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== June - 19 ==== | ||
+ | - Heard about andytim's patch for httpdisk, I was thinking, how is it going to affect me and BKO development. | ||
+ | - Came across link for [[http://unit.aist.go.jp/itri/knoppix/http-fuse/index-en.html|HTTP-FUSE-LINUX]] which seems same as what I am doing. It seems that they have done little more than what we have planed. I am not sure how badly this is going to affect BKO. | ||
+ | - Problem in creation of initramfs [[InitramFSBKO]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== June - 20 ==== | ||
+ | - Finally got the Knoppix working on BKO. I have done some basic testing and it seems it is working fine. [[http://git.etherboot.org/?p=people/pravin/BKO.git;a=commit;h=976e5350638ad848e45e549cefa9970eafeb7378|commit hash]] | ||
+ | - Fixed some small bugs in BKO. |
