Well, I have an embedded system that I am developing that is diskless - it
just has a small flash(read only) with the kernel and intrd and it has 32
Mb of SDRAM. It will be recording some atmospheric data collected by a
sensor connected to one of its 2 serial ports. It will have a reliable,
continuous power supply and every few months I want to go physically to
the device and plug a serial line into the other serial port and retrieve
the data. I want the data to be stored on a ramdisk (seems like the
best/only? solution given my hardware) so it needs to be a read/write fs
(cramfs is read only right?) I was reading a ramdisk howto and it (albeit
it was a few years old) recommened mke2fs for the ramdisk.
Any suggections?
Thanks,
Luke
