| |
Hello,
I'm trying to get fcache (2.6.17-ck1) working on my machine, but it works just once ;)
In Gentoo the root fs is remounted rw in "checkroot" init script, so I've done this:
--- /etc/init.d/checkroot.orig 2006-06-24 18:47:41.000000000 +0200 +++ /etc/init.d/checkroot 2006-06-25 09:17:52.000000000 +0200 @@ -70,8 +70,10 @@ if mount -vf -o remount / 2> /dev/null | \ awk '{ if ($6 ~ /rw/) exit 0; else exit 1; }' then - ebegin "Remounting root filesystem read/write" - mount -n -o remount,rw / &> /dev/null + ebegin "Remounting root filesystem read/write (FCACHE)" + # try with fcache + mount -n -o remount,rw,fcache_dev=8/10,fcache_prime=0 / &> /dev/null || \ + mount -n -o remount,rw / &> /dev/null if [[ $? -ne 0 ]] ; then eend 2 "Root filesystem could not be mounted read/write :(" if [[ ${RC_FORCE_AUTO} != "yes" ]] ; then
1) priming - it works

2) first boot with priming=0 - it works! Great speedup :)

3) reboot - it doesn't work anymore :(
[ 26.673525] fcache: found serial 33, expected 34. [ 26.673529] fcache: reprime the cache! [ 26.673535] ext3: failed to open fcache (err=-22)
I'm doing something wrong?
