If this works you could just add the following to your
/usr/local/sbin/post-boot script:
Code:
# test if USB disc has been attached
# if not - then insert needed modules
if [ ! -d /dev/discs ]
then
insmod scsi_mod && insmod sd_mod && insmod usb-storage && sleep 5s
fi
#Wait for /opt to mount
mount /dev/discs/disc0/part3 /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/part2
This activates the swap partition and mounts the harddisc to the /opt directory. Works perfectly for me.
Well Done !!!
I had the same problem, to activate and mount the sticks without running the stupid-ftp-deamon
THANKS
