Hi . I was trying to play a little bit with factoryfs.rfs, but i realised that if you add file to the filesystem, the permissions aren't kept.
So anyone had tried to compile RFS module under a Linux ? (I'm on Ubuntu 10.10, 64 bits).
hey guys i tried to rood and it failed and my phone is stuck on Samsung logo can anybody tell me what i can do now to make the phone boot up again

Probably noone - except for some people at Samsung, that is. As far as I know, it's kept secret. For some insight, have a look at RFS = FAT + journal? Robust - sigh... (LWN)

Also, @gsam
RFS is full of bugs, you cannot read/write RFS filesystems on any computer.
RFS is prone to corruption (in many more ways you can expect)
RFS doesn't have a "packer" that zeroes empty portions in order to get filesystem images with good compressibility (IE: free space will be by default full of junk)
Its just FAT with posix permissions and journaling, to make it work with linux/android

Hey guys, just an FYI-
Giveawayoftheday.com is featuring the above listed download for 17 more hours. This is NOT warez, as multiple companies allow free downloads for a 24 hour period. My advice is to download and activate this software FAST, as there are only about 17 more hours (as of this posting) to activate it. I've found PPM 9.0 to be very easy to use while partitioning, repartitioning, and formatting my card.
It's quicker than typing it all in console
Go HERE
There's also a link for 64bit system users on that page. Happy downloading.

if im not mistaken auto partition like this (PARAGON) sometimes makes some issues when flashing, they said manual partitioning still better,

good find.

I second that. PM 10 is awesome for PCs, but I wouldn't use it to partition my G1. There are partitioning tools built right into the latest Cyanogen's recovery image, and scripts around it to make it easier to use.
Helpfull for noobs.. Nice find.. WIll this work for the G1? The trial ones would only partition your local drives C:\
cheers
partition manager provides an easy way for the windows user to create the correct paritions in the correct order on any sd card so is valuable in this instance.
also aside from that its brilliant if you want to move a complete operating system to a new drive, it does this with vista and the machine wont even ask for reactivation.
anyways thats way off topic...
its definately worth using instead of Gparted if you havnt got a linux based setup.
PEACE. THANX.

It's funny how things work differently for everyone. I'm running Vista x86 and never had issues partitioning my SD card on my g1. Anyhow, some may find it useful.
Just downloaded and saved I'd rather use cyanogen's recovery image though
Thank you Sr. I do find it useful .. I have always used Paragon to partition my G1 with no problems at all..
awesome man. thanks for that site. after going through some of the stuff they have given away, im gonna check it daily now. Yesterday was driver magician
Thanks for the tip! Paragon Partition Manager is the best partition software I've ever used!
real men use the parted cli
Thanks for the software, but I honestly don't like it. I prefer just booting into linux to use GParted or popping in a GParted Live USB stick

Trust me, I do the same. I keep it bookmarked in my cell and on my PC
Just to let you guys know what has happened to me in the past with paragon. I was able to use it and was very simple but 2 times out of the 3 or 4 months I used it something went wrong with the partitioning which caused my pc to crash. Thus leaving me to reinstall the OS all over again. Good thing I kept everything backed up though.
Thanks for the find, unfortunately im downloading at 15kb/s. I feel like im using aol from 95
I'm trying to build a new version of Apps2SD (version 2.6). I'm trying to get this version compatible with EXT4. I have resurrected my Darktremor Kernel (for those of you who don't know what that is...which is probably almost everyone...this is a kernel I built when the Hero source came out), which has EXT4 support.
I have set my ext partition to be EXT4.
The problem I'm having is, if I use the following command:
mount -o noatime,nodiratime -t auto /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
I get the following errors:
During boot: Invalid argument
In ADB shell: No such device
I've tried using -t ext4, but I just get "No such device".
What am I doing wrong here? I've search all over XDA and the Internet. I see Roms that have EXT4 in them, but nobody talks about how to manually mount one (I can find all sorts of information about EXT3, but it appears the attitude with EXT4 is "it just works.")
Thanks.

I wish I could help, but I haven't messed around with the kernel or even EXT4... hmm, maybe it's time for me to start! You have any specific tutorials you'd recommend tkirton?

I have a guide on how to compile your own kernel. The same guide is one of the threads in XDA, but I know how hard it is sometimes to search for something (hence why I'm asking about EXT4)
http://www.darktremor.com/kernels.html
See if that helps as a starting document.
Sorry that I having nothing useful to offer on this subject. However, am I assuming correctly that current recovery images would support an EXT4 when doing Nandroid backups for A2SD users?

Honestly I never tried to backup or restore on an EXT4 drive. I'm sure it will work, but I'm suspecting there's issues with the kernel source. I never had a reason to go to EXT4 (EXT3 suited my needs just fine and there aren't a lot of Roms that support EXT4).

I'll ask Toast and Fresh as their Dev ROM supports EXT4, so they should know if Nandroid backs that up or not... I suppose.

I'm not doubting it does...Amon_RA stated in several threads that it does. But that kernel and the one used to boot are completely different. The problem I'm running into is the one for boot (the 1.5 kernel, or version 2.6.27 of the kernel). It won't activate there, although there is an entry called /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (so the kernel does see something...it just won't mount).
Maybe the issue is busybox. I'll see if I can find busybox on the recovery kernel and port it.
I was thinking it could be because .27 uses ext4-dev. I've seen a gang load of ext4 patches for .27 I used the rename patch in my kernel. But it seems not to work. When testing it I thought it did work. As a2sd in our init.d was seeming to be working and I had all my apps. But after everyone was saying they couldn't get it to work, I'm thinking I may need to try another patch. But yeah I'm not sure what the issue is. Maybe we can contact cyanogen or amon on this as I know they get it to work somehow.

I'm coming up with the same conclusion...the ext4dev drivers don't appear to work. They load up (I'm getting that from a device dump), but they won't mount. Apparently, it won't mount in recovery, either.
I'm wondering if I grab a 1.6 or better source if I can recompile the part for ext4 inside the rest of the Hero 1.5 source. If I remember correctly with Linux compiling, as long as I have the correct dependencies, I should be able to compile it.

Did you use version 2.0 or 1.0? If it is 2.0 then it would say when you start it up. I am just curious.
