Hi everyone,
I've downloaded the ext2FS driver to be able to read my linux
partition, and I'm now trying to mount it.
I've followed the instructions that come with ext2fs:
+ copy the driver to L:
+ create a mountlist with giggledisk
+ modify the mountlist
+ run mount, or copy to devs:dosdrivers
Well it just doesn't work. Mount tells me:
Ram Disk:> mount LNX: debug
Mount: Current DevName <LNX:>
Mount: search for devname <LNX:>
CheckDevice: <LNX>
CheckDevice: object doesn't exists
ReadMountList: find <LNX> in mountlist <lnx>
ReadFile: <lnx>
ParseMountList: <LNX>
ParseMountList: buffer <FileSystem>
ParseMountList: ReadItem res 1
ParseMountList: failure
ERROR: Device 'LNX:' not found in file 'lnx'
Mount: failed with error 5001
In the bottom of this post I'l put ther original (giggledisk) and
modified mountlists.
BTW, when I mount SMBFS: (samba), Ambient does not display an Icon. I
was told it was probable a prob with mosnet, but the same happens with
miami and genesis. There is a disk.icon present in the target drive.
How can I declare that a new device was mounted so ambient notices?
Besides that, SMBFS works just fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
