DSL Tips and Tricks :: DSC-II or Damn Small Capio II

I found that under kernel 2.4.26 the USB stick is not seen, unless:

- Capio booted under DOS with the usbaspi.sys and di1000dd.sys
 USB drivers to make the stick visible under DOS  
- Then boot using loadlin _from_ the USB stick

So yes, now I have 2.3RC1 running on the Capio .
Time permitting I will post a full howto plus an image of my DOC somewhere on the web.

Making the DOC visible as a file system from DSL is simple:

- sudo bash  or start a terminal as root

> mknod /dev/nftla1 b 93 1
> mkdir /doc
> mount /dev/nftla1 /doc


- to be continued -

You'd have to rebuild the kernel or set the system up to see the DOC as a file system, e.g. /dev/nftla and /nftla1 should be mknod'd and mounted at boot time. No idea how to do this though.

My idea is simply let DOS be the boot loader, and let autoexec.bat run loadlin on the usb stick.
