Hello,
looking for a small distro for a firewall and traffic shaper I found voyage
and installed it (0.2-stable) on a 128 MB CF card.
It's running fine for 8 days now but I'm a liitle worried about `df`. Space
on /rw is getting short because of big logfiles (for debugging the fresh
setup).
How is this whole /rw /ro thing working?
/dev/hda1 (the CF card) is listed in /etc/fstab as to be mounted as / but
doesn't appear in the output of `mount`. There's an rw rootfs AND an
ro /dev/root mounted on /. Can someone explain please?
When I run `remountro` (which actually does `mount -o remount,ro /`) is
writing to CF card really disabled totally?
Where ans how is the data from /rw written to when I shut down?
Can I increase /rw's size somewhere?
Where can I add feature requests? On the wiki page?
Regards
Daniel
