Hi all,

Can we use this mod to http://forum.samdroid.net/f56/samdro...scussion-3022/ ?

I was still stucked with ext2, and I tried using the conversion tools in recovery. No luck at all.
I had to get back to RFS and install LK2.08 by Odin to get the phone to boot past samdroid screen.
I really don't understand what I did to create such a mess in my phone....
In any case tomorrow I'm going to try again and see if after this reset I can use your mod.

Unfortunately the new recovery wasn't helpful

Can we use this mod to SamdroidMod 2.0.1.alpha7 - Froyo [AOSP] for i5700 [Discussion] ?

For alpha 8 and up you can use the _nokrn versions.

I'm trying to fix the rfs issue with my kernel(no luck so far) and then release a new one with a bit modified conversion tool. But until then you can try the update packages.

If you are changing to the latest version of them, then you can install them over this.

Uploaded new kernel, but still no RFS support (This drives me crazy)

good luck with it!
Now I'm on ext2/ext4 but I lost all my setting and programs I got back my configurations yeah! I really hope you can do it!

I suggest everybody to copy the tar and store it for later recovery via adb shell.
For example to restore manually /data the code i did the following

touch /etc/mtab
mke2fs -T ext4 -q -m 0 -b 4096 -O ^huge_file,extent /dev/stl5
mount -t ext4 -o rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered /dev/stl5 /data
cd /
tar xvf /sdcard/samdroid/Backup_data.tar
umount /data

Some program didn't work properly after this action so I had to unistall and reistall manually, but most configuration weren't lost.

In Xmister script there was also a tune2fs -c 3 /dev/stl5 but -c option is not supported by the busybox installed in my system.

I happened to me that the /cache partition was unaccessible during recovery start-up so no action could be taken. This happened after I tried to convert /cache from ext2 to rfs.
Don't ask me why, just experimenting
The only way to solve it, was to flash a LK2.08 which has a valid cache file inside the tar.
If you could prepare a file like this, it would spare one Odin flash and give immediatly the correct /cache partition.

is this going to work using kernel 2.09.1? im still at this kernel after all new versions appear.

Well, it will replace your kernel, so it will work. Although I'd rather recommend to choose on of my Eclair kernel builds - XM kernels - (Not BFS) , and do the conversion in recovery:Advanced/Filesystem conversion
