playing with openwrt on a linksys wrt54gl router, and i noticed in the middle of /proc/cmdline the boot-time option: rootfstype=squashfs,jffs2 what does that option mean? what's happening here is that the root filesystem is R/O squashfs, with changes being handled via mini_fo and being placed in a jffs2 filesystem. but how does that require that option to be passed to the kernel at boot time? and why would the kernel need to be told both of those values? thanks. rday ======================================================================== Robert P.
