From b9c3f3ae29a396a33d1f40dce439fe11ace2f3c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "jbranso@dismail.de" Date: Fri, 31 May 2024 15:06:43 -0400 Subject: add example of how to create a custom filesystem. Hey Samuel, this is another modification of a previous commit. Hopefully this addresses your critiques. I also added in "-E root_owner=$UID:0" to some other files, where I thought it was appropirate. Hopefully I didn't make any mistakes. I did test this by the way. I was able to get ~/silly/silly1 to be two nested ext2fs translators. All without having to execute "sudo"! * hurd/translator/ext2fs.mdwn: explain how to create a custom filesystem, and mentioned that the current limit for how many nested ext2fs filesystems there could be...is 32. * faq/still_useful: sbin/mk2fs dummy.fs -> sbin/mk2fs -E root_owner=$UID:0 dummy.fs * hurd/documentation/translators.html: as above. * open_issues_/64-bit_port.mdwn: as above Message-ID: <20240531191015.8761-1-jbranso@dismail.de> --- open_issues/64-bit_port.mdwn | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'open_issues/64-bit_port.mdwn') diff --git a/open_issues/64-bit_port.mdwn b/open_issues/64-bit_port.mdwn index 77b0632e..75756199 100644 --- a/open_issues/64-bit_port.mdwn +++ b/open_issues/64-bit_port.mdwn @@ -86,7 +86,7 @@ To make a bootable system we really better make the disk image partitioned, and # create a new primary partition spanning the whole disk: n p and just accept the defaults, and finish with w settrans -ca disk /hurd/storeio -T typed file:disk.img settrans -ca disk1 /hurd/storeio -T typed part:1:file:disk.img - /sbin/mke2fs disk1 + /sbin/mke2fs -E root_owner=$UID:0 disk1 settrans -ca chroot-hurd-amd64 /hurd/ext2fs disk1 (here we assume that fdisk puts the partition at sector 2048, that's indeed the -- cgit v1.2.3
