| |
I am experiencing a problem when I try to run the following script:
#! /bin/sh cat /flash/modules-2.4.21 > /dev/ram1 mount -t cramfs -o ro /dev/ram1 /lib/modules
Running it once causes the mount to fail with 'cramfs: wrong magic' - running it twice will make mount succeed on the second try.
Oddly enough, repeating the 2 lines within the script doesn't work either.
The behaviour has been reproduced by several people with different 2.4 kernels.
As I need this to go into some boot scripts, I'd like this to work without human intervention.
Any suggestions ?
