Title: converting extensions to squashfs
Post by: Jason W on September 21, 2009, 05:13:44 AM

I am converting the existing cramfs/zisofs tczs into squashfs.  I am keeping a backup of the originals just in case.  But post here if there is an issue with an extension that seems to be related to the change.

The extensions are converted.  I am going to upload them Wednesday as the rain is making the network unreliable.

It is flooding here in north Georgia, lots of lightning.  It's tapered off now, will get back home to my regular box Wed and resume.

JW, is it an ordinary phone modem or cable?

Georgia has been hit by heavy rains and flooding:

Some areas have had 20 inches (50 cm) of rain in the last 3 days.

It is a phone DSL line.  I am not sure if the breakdown is occurring on my property or elsewhere.  Of course lightning and such tends to knock the connection down for a few minutes at a time.
