Help on setting up usb hd in WL500gp-1.9.2.7-7g

[frankic]

Hi All,
First of all , thank you so much on the effort for helping us to maximize the limition of the router. As a newbie on linux, I try to follow the tutorial but seems I was stuck on some step now.

Firmwire WL500gp-1.9.2.7-7g updated

use putty install dropbear, activte 32M and then I am stuck on the USB HD

I had 320USB hd and formatted by partition magic
part 1 - 60G ext3
part 2 - 70M ext3
part 3 - 200G NTFS ( with my old backup data)

The router recognize it as follow

I think my next step should make file system as the tutorial

the code in tutorial are
mke2fs -j /dev/discs/disc0/part1
mkswap /dev/discs/disc0/part2

but I think my part2 is Ntfs now
so what should I change on the code?

by the way is there any "dir" command in linux so I can see how many partition I had etc?

Thank you so much! Its fun to start making it works~~really enjoy the process.

humm my usb Drive formation seems wierd coz I had the ntfs first and resize and create 2 ext3 from the beginning

here is the info from fdisk



Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/discs/disc0/part1 7697 38913 250750552+ f Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/discs/disc0/part2 1 7687 61745796 83 Linux
/dev/discs/disc0/part3 7688 7696 72292+ 83 Linux
/dev/discs/disc0/part5 7697 38913 250750521 7 HPFS/NTFS

Partition table entries are not in disk order

is this working , I just try my luck

[admin@(none) root]$ mke2fs -j /dev/discs/disc0/part2
mke2fs 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)
mke2fs: /dev/discs/disc0/part2 is mounted !
mke2fs: it's not safe to run badblocks!
[admin@(none) root]$ mkswap /dev/discs/disc0/part3
Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 74022912 bytes

[frankic]

then postscript is like this

#!/bin/sh
dropbear
#Wait for /opt to mount
mount /dev/discs/disc0/part2 /opt
i=0
while [ $i -le 30 ]
do
if [ -d /opt/etc ]
then
break
fi
sleep 1
i=`expr $i + 1`
done

# Activate swap
swapon /dev/discs/disc0/part3

# rUN ALL ACTIVE SERVICES - ACTIVE MEANS STARTS WITh S
