OK, I'm going to try for the second option. So I guess I tell linux to make the FAT16 its root partition, then in linuxrc, I mount the image loopback and do pivot_root to it. Sounds quite elegant. One question: how do I mount the image loopback? Is there some kind of losetup(2) system call? Thanks, Dave -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
