Hi,
I was using Cygwin and cross-tool to develop application for TS-7260.
I got to the point were I need to use more Linux tools than are
available in Cygwin . I was able to load Debian to the TS-7260 from
USB flash.
What I am trying to figure out now is how to access the application
that I had on TS-7260 RAM? I can see my application if I am logged in
from different PC through telnet, but I can't find the applcation
using Debian command prompt on TS-7260.
Originally I though that I need to mount the "old" root directory, so
I tried to use "mount /dev/mtdblock/1 /mnt", but I am getting error
"mount ... already mounted or /mnt busy".
So, my question is: how can I access TS-7260 old "root" directory
after I boot to TS-7260 from USB Flash?
