Does Barrys new Pmount detect your size correct. I have not changed anything in Barrys sizedetection code (I think). Would you please post a screenshot of the the new Pmount together with Pdrive 0.23.

I too show double the drive size - free space is correct though.
Here is a screens shot...

Try this:
change the code at the start of func_probe
Code: Select all
PROBEPART="`probepart`"
DISKINFO="`probedisk`"
PARTSINFO="`echo "$PROBEPART" -k | grep -v 'none' | tr ' ' '_' | tr '\t' '_' | tr '\n' ' '`"
to
Code: Select all
PROBEPART="`probepart -k`"
DISKINFO="`probedisk`"
PARTSINFO="`echo "$PROBEPART" | grep -v 'none' | tr ' ' '_' | tr '\t' '_' | tr '\n' ' '`"
I moved the "-k" seems to have fixed the size problem (on my pc)

On puppy-214 I have this images:
Barry's pmount
Pdrive 0.23 version
When you ask me for the last Barry's pmount, do you meant on puppy-3.01 or puppy-4 alpha2 ?.

zigbert, the underlying code in pmount was a dog's breakfast. I've been intending to rewrite it for ages. I've attached the latest pmount (slightly later than the one I uploaded to ibiblio several days ago) and a bugfixed 'mount' script that has to be used for mounting ntfs.
You might like to examine the new code, and if you wish use it for Pdrive.

Just added this to pmount, at line 208:
else
[ "$DOFS" = "iso9660" ] && eject $DODEV

Pdrive is nothing new. Pdrive is no spicy code. Pdrive is just a new gui to Barrys code (Pmount). I can't tell too much about his code. I never took the time to investigate. If something drives aren't detected correct, the main question is: Does it in Pmount? if YES --> My code hasn't cloned well from Pmount. if NO --> We need a bugfix of Pmount / We need new code in Pdrive. Both is just fine with me. Pdrive used earlier the Pmount version in Puppy 3. From version 0.22, Pdrive uses the rewritten code of the latest Pmount in Dingo. Unfortunately I can't see the new Pmount package in the Puppy 4.00 repository. I grabbed it from an alpha-live-CD.
Sit Heel speak made me aware of the not working swap-detection in another thread. The NEW Pmount doesn't detect swaps, so here has my dirty hands been hacking again. My fault.

See this screenshot of PDrive and MUT:

The swap partition hdc2 is shown correctly.
The swap partition hdb1 also showed correctly,
until I mounted hda6. Then I refreshed PDrive, and hdb1 showed incorrectly as Mounted.

Zigbert,
I believe there is a regression in version 0.25. Clicking on the "View Advanced" tab, all partitions show 0.0G / 0.0G, with the exception of my "boot" partition which still shows 94M/72M.
I replaced with the script func_probe with the one from 0.24 and sizes were reported again, but they were shown in the device column.

Hey guys
Please try version 0.26 (see main post).
Sit Heel Speak
I have made some changes to swap handling, but I haven't investigated your problem. If it still occur, - I really want to know.

PDrive 0.27 is working correctly now on Puppy 2.17, with regard to swap:

Automounter that mounts during boot?
Posted: Fri 07 Mar 2008, 07:51
by Jon_J
I hope I'm not going off topic, but is there an automounter that mounts your hard drives/partitions during the boot process?
I know this is like comparing apples to oranges, but at the Zaurus community, there is a guy that made an automounter package that mounts almost everything automatically.
There are only 3-4 partitions on the internal HDD, they get mounted at boot.
Both CF and SD cards are mounted during boot, (if they are inserted).
CF/SD cards automatically mount/umount upon insertion/removal.
Most all external USB storage devices mount automatically. I had to edit a file to make my 750MB zip drive mount automatically.
This package isn't launched, it just runs when the Zaurus is turned on, or booted.

Dougal has made a automounting daemon for puppy
check the readme.txt here:
http://puppylinux.ca/tpp/tronkel/hotpup ... tc/HotPup/
Latest community edition uses it:

Is this normal?

Does Pdrive show free space on a mounted disk?
line 105 and 112 should maybe been changed from
if [ $FREEK -gt ... -----> if [ "$FREE" -gt ...
