New oleg firmware version

[ctr99]

rootfs? the rootfs is installed on your router with the firmware image. Or do you mean optware?
Anyway, with the new version of the firmware you need to make a fstab to configure automatic mounting of usb drives.
Wengi has a great tutorial for this: http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?10...0931#post60931 (part about fstab)

I followed the instructions at http://oleg.wl500g.info/ under section "Root file system on the external USB drive", but changing the boot_dev path to the new location, i.e. /dev/discs/disca/part1.

I was expecting the root file system to be pivot_mount'ed from the temporary rootfs to the persistent permanent copy on my USB stick. This used to work with the Oleg verison of the firmware under 2.4.x but no longer works on the 2.6.x kernel.
