Hi Anubhav,
do not move uEnv.txt, the U-Boot image and the kernel images
around. Due to the limited technical possibilities of the very early
boot stages, these files are exspected to be at certain physical
place on the flash memory.
Instead edit /etc/fstab and remove the mount command of /boot.
Do a backup first.
Hi Anubhav,
one thing I did not know about your system is: Are you using
an SDcard to boot from or do you boot from the internal flash
memory?
"Critical files" are more than only those under /boot.
Delete /sbin/init and your system will hang shortly after
the kernel is running... ;)
I dont know of the exact mechanism Windows is accessing the
partitions via USB...
After plugging in the BBB via USB to a Windows PC...do you access
the files in question via WEB interface (browser) or "low level"
via Windows explorer (NOT Internet Explorer or such alike) ...
that is...there must be "something" on you PC which enables
Windows to read ext4fs formatted partitions...
If it is a WEB interface you use...I am out of bussiness here,
since I am by no means a WEB-stuff guru... :)
But I /think/ (read: Dont know for sure) that must be file
which configures the running webserver on the BBB to export
parts of the filesystem to the calling browser on the Windows
PC. This file is, what you want to edit..
:D .. I will take this advice , and soon move over to deb.
Ok, so lets backup some. If you're only connected through the USB cable via USBnet, then you would have a problem with this.However if you can connect to your BBB via ethernet, then you could remove the module, and reload it with new parameters to make sure you changes work, before you apply them permanently.
I dont connect to bbb via ether net port, I connect using mini USB , the serial and ethernet(rndis) functions are not important to me - over the miniusb.
All in one driver. Since only one gadget driver can be loaded at any one time.
Hi,
I throw away Angstrom and moved to Gentoo after a few updates
complete scrambled Angstrom...
Consider to boot from SDcard, because it can be "edited"
via an USB cardreader on the PC and can be replaced if
weared out (flash has a limited count of write cycles).
If the internal flash is damaged, you a solder iron,
VERY good eyes and a very very steady hand....
Only my two cents,...
Best
