You are so my hero. Now, I just need to figure out where to properly add the insmod in the startup scripts so /media/mmc2 is mounted properly as /Root. As a control, I added the insmod line in the bootmisc.sh and the 2nd partition in fstab. A reboot shows nothing listed in mount. bah. and attempting a mount on the fstab entry fails until I insmod again from the command line.

Now I'm digigng through the /etc/init.d/minircS chain, trying to make sense of it. I need to step away, as my brain is fried, but my tablet is somewhat unusable at this point. *grumble* well, usable. just can't install anything else w/o uninstalling

This is call coming from: http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ExtendedRootFilesystem

I'm opting to use ext2, as from what I've read using jffs/ext3 isn't going to buy me enough to warrant the difference. Tho, if I can't solve it quickly, I'll return to using ext3.. and hope it works easily.

Please feel free to contribute any help. I'm hoping to update the wiki page once all of my madness is complete.
