I picked up some 2 gig SD cards at Microcenter and have been
unsuccessfully trying to partition and get them to boot and run on the
TS7390.
Most of these memory media are slightly different size depending on
make. Also they tend to have different memory geometry.
So I don't want to do a direct dd copy of the whole device.
I also wanted to partition a larger root area.
So here's what I have - can someone tell me what I've done wrong?
Disk /dev/tssdcarda: 2021 MB, 2021654528 bytes
20 heads, 19 sectors/track, 10390 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 380 * 512 = 194560 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/tssdcarda1 1 1000 189990+ c W95 FAT32
(LBA)
/dev/tssdcarda2 1001 1022 4180 da Non-FS data
/dev/tssdcarda3 1023 1044 4180 da Non-FS data
/dev/tssdcarda4 1045 10390 1775740 83 Linux
After partitioning
I did the following:
From the original working card I did:
dd if=/dev/tssdcarda2 of=sd2.dd bs=65536
dd if=/dev/tssdcarda3 of=sd3.dd bs=65536
Then created a tarball of the stuff on /dev/tssdcarda4
Then on the new card I did the following:
dd if=sd2.dd of=/dev/tssdcarda2 bs=65536
dd if=sd3.dd of=/dev/tssdcarda3 bs=65536
mkfs /dev/tssdcarda4
Then I untarred the tarball mentioned before.
Any help would be appreciated.
