Download http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/6.x/armv6/release_candidates/kernel.img and overwrite /mnt/mmcblk0p1/kernel.img with it. It is the same kernel as before except with governor set to performace by default.

Hi all,

Festive greetings! I'm really excited to get a system up and running on this new beta BUT a quick question as I don't see the full "release update details" as such. I'm wondering if the recursive backup is now possible? I currently run an rsync script to achieve recursive backup but a way built into the system would be great :)

Chat soon - Thanks

What do you mean recursive backup?

Béla,

Great work !!!

The cpu freqency management and overclocking is working well now.
After installing the cpufrequtils.tcz I'm using the confix.txt frequency setup as follows:

--- Code: (bash) ---arm_freq=1100
core_freq=500
sdram_freq=550
over_voltage=6

--- End code ---

and first line in the bootlocal.sh:

--- Code: (bash) ---cpufreq-set -g ondemand

--- End code ---

and everything is working very fast and stable.

My suggestion is to make the cpufrequtils as a basic part of the next distro and set the ondemand into the bootlocal.sh.
The config.txt overclocking may be set to conservative values, safe even for slower CPU's used in A+ boards:

--- Code: (bash) ---arm_freq=900
core_freq=333
sdram_freq=450

--- End code ---

And please add the "&" string at the end of the getty line to enable the following command to be executed.

Hi Jan

thanks for the feedback.

cpufrequtils.tcz is not needed to change governor, this code can do the job in bootlocal.sh:


--- Code: ---cat ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
--- End code ---

Also you can tune ondemand parameters like tresholds to change its behavior.

& is not enough. With the present way if one types exit it stops the terminal and you can never log in again. Need a loop to restart it after exit. Will do in next cut.
