Message-ID: <DDENIOHFNLNMCGGDFDPCAEDDCJAA.neil.holmes@zoom.co.uk> (raw)
OK. I found my "typo" in my upgrade code so I have uploaded something thats
called 0.0.5a. The only difference between that and 0.0.5 is that it will
upgarde an existing type 80 partition. The upgrade is achieved by overwrite
of kernel and binaries. I have not built in any backup yet. Its on my list
of things to do.
The "upgrade" of an existing ELKS installation is a lot smoother because a
valid partition already exists.
Incidentally. An EDE 0.0.5/5a install that has partition problems throws up
a raft of ugly errors at the moment. Nothing to panic about as no damage is
done. The other thing that I am working on, beside backup on upgrade, is
some code to trap the errors and stop the install. Something that should see
the light of day in 0.0.6. Hopefully the filesystem guys will have the
answers to all my prayers before then and it becomes something of minor
importance.
So, for the record, I have 2 areas of work in progress at the moment :-
1. Backup binaries and kernel on upgrade
2. Trap mkfs errors and stop the install
Other work will come with 0.1.2 kernel and updaded elkscmd in due course.
Have Fun !
Neil
