... and we're back

well, i couldn't get it to boot off the CF anymore, so I just started over. i think the problem was that after i reloaded OpenWrt on the internal flash and installed the usb/storage drivers, it thought the CF filesystem "magically" changed to vfat and it didn't want to mount as root anymore. now i know that i mke2fs'd it. ah well.

so, i altered the swap technique by adding an /etc/fstab, making the swap init.d script S90swap and making it's entire contents "/usr/sbin/swapon -a". the contents of /etc/fstab are:

/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun2/part1 swap swap defaults 0 0

i think my next step will be to dump dropbear and start running OpenSSH. i once spent entirely too many hours to get DSA keys to work with dropbear, unsuccessfully. i should have enough memory to run a real ssh daemon. besides, i think all the libs are pre-req's for OpenVPN anyway. or maybe remote syslogging. i've been seeing these weird scsi errors in 'dmesg' after it boots. i think it's for the empty slots in the flash memory reader - i believe i'm using sda and sdc (lun0 and lun2). i'm seeing errors for sdb and sdd as follows, but it's only the end of the error dump:

sdd : READ CAPACITY failed.
