- Hello,
- I'm going to buy a biggish (>2Gb) IDE disc in order to install ARMLinux
- properly and have some more RISC OS space (I currently have a 540Mb disc).
-
- I want to leave 1Gb to ARMLinux and the rest for RISC OS but I'd like to use
- EADFS in order to have more RISC OS partitions (to keep the LFAU down and
- avoid wasting a lot of space!). Can I use EADFS with ARMLinux?
-
- I haven't EADFS now, so I don't even know how it works, I suppose it creates
- a 'main' ADFS partition and then either uses a partition table (probably
- pointed to by the ADFS bootblock) or simply uses a chained list of 'virtual'
- discs using bootblock pointers.
-
- Also, can I have RiscBSD and ARMLinux installed on the same disc? AFAIK both
- uses the ADFS bootblock to point their own partition, so it shouldn't be
- possible to do this... I prefer to avoid playing with /etc/disktab or similar
- dangerous stuff...
-
- Regards,
- Sergio
-
- PS: Is anybody going to write an EXT2FS for RISC OS? This will obviously
- solve all my (and many other people's) problems...
