confused if copy2fs.flg unmounts mmcblk0p2 automatically

Sounds like unmount should happen automatically? It didn't in my case. Should I do it actively in /opt/bootlocal.sh?

I suspect he meant "and mmcblk0p2 can be unmounted", at least on x86 you need to do it in bootlocal.

And as I discovered only today, if you plan to load any more extensions over the network, remember to remap the [now broken] symlink /etc/sysconfig/tcedir to point to /tmp/tce otherwise tce-load just fails silently.

[Juanito]

which version of piCore are you using?

I just installed piCore-9.0.3 and could download/load additional extensions without problems.

My bad, I was in part replying to the previous post about doing it in bootlocal.sh on x86, in my case it was x86(8.0) not Pi. But that said tce-load does do '[ -d "$TCEDIR" ] || exit 1' so I'd assume it fails on all platforms once you've unmounted the device tcedir points to.

I've just noted though that in the code there's a '-t tcedir' option not mentioned in the usage text which seems a more reliable way of scripting subsequent RAM based loads once the boot media has been removed, without having to fix the symlink.

I'm new to TCL even on x86, but do have an unused RasPi 1 without an SD card. This topic has kind of piqued my interest generally, I think I'll order a new memory card and give piCore a whirl too.
