0000808: Problem with 1.1.1 version not building with .config that works with 1.1.0

Notes
(0001208) bernhardf 04-03-06 06:58	Please attach your .config and also provide the exact sequence of commands so i can try to reproduce this. TIA

I still get the problem, but discovered that for some reason, when booting from the 1.1.1 busybox, the system is in a read only mode, and that might be what is causing the problem with the dialog not working. I see there is a 1.1.2 version now, and perhaps it was the mount or other problem that also caused this. I was going to try linking the linuxrc to the 1.1.0 busybox, and have the other programs use the 1.1.1 version to see if it was a problem with the linuxrc. Will try building the 1.1.2, and see if that fixes this.

(0001287) msetzerii 04-13-06 20:29	With 1.1.2, I was getting the same problem with the read only file system. I have found that the following gets it to work, but don't know why it works with the 1.1.0 version, but not the 1.1.1 or 1.1.2. I added the sleep 5 lines and added the command to remount / after the mounting of proc. With the 1.1.0 and befefore, it had worked with the setup. I just saw that it wasn't giving a read/write system, and if I manually ran rcS after the boot, it would then work. This showed that it is linked directly to the two mount options. Should the proc be mounted first?, or does having it mount again being ok. Probable don't need any pauses, but it gets thru the section of having dialog work after the changes. This was written with the 0.14 version of G4L, so I wasn't the one that created the original rcS script, but added the dialog screens at the end. #!/bin/sh #Script to be executed by busybox at bootup # #Modify to your needs # sleep 5 echo "Re-mounting / with read-write permissions" /bin/mount -n -o remount,rw / sleep 5 echo "Mounting /proc" /bin/mount -t proc proc /proc sleep 5 /bin/mount -n -o remount,rw / echo "Not loading any keymap -> US Layout" #if NON english, load binary(!!) keymap here #shipped keymap is german. #/sbin/loadkmap < /var/lib/kbd/keymap.map sleep 5 echo "Setting Hostname" #set hostname to whatever you want, does not #matter /bin/hostname g4l dialog --textbox /disclaim 24 79 dialog --textbox /instruct 0 0 dialog --textbox /latest 0 0 device=eth0 ipaddress=`udhcpc -n -i $device -s/udhcpc.sh\|grep Lease\|cut -d\ -f4` if [ -n $ipaddress ]; then /sbin/ifconfig $device $ipaddress up fi echo IP Address is: $ipaddress

(0001351) landley 05-07-06 14:34	Yeah, I'm sorry about the numbering. 1.1.1 should have been 1.2.0, it was a new development stabilization, so the middle number should have bumped. 1.1.2 was a bugfix release, 1.2.0 will be the next new development release. I'm trying to be more careful about that in the future. 1.x increases might break oldconfig, but 1.x.y shouldn't. Separately, the build at once stuff has been fixed (by which I mean it works in svn, although you still shouldn't select it on a system with <512 megs ram.
