How to mount kernel26.img

Hello,
everyone
I would like mount the init-img of the kernel.
I`ve tried:
gunzip -dc /boot/kernel26.img >/anywhere/kernel26.dec.img
and then
mount -o loop /anywhere/kernel26.dec.img /elsewhere/
but didn`t have any success.
Then mount -t ext2 -o loop /anywhere/kernel26.dec.img /elsewhere/
Same here.
Is the init.img really a file system or something else.
I would like to look at the kinit-img.
Oh and between i looked and decompressed image with an hex
and it contains some path-like cleartext.
Can anybody help me here?

Sorry, I could have said that it's impossible to just mount the first time
For assembling it back (change the filenames as needed) (to be run as root) (make sure that you also extract the image as root in the first place, since it contains some device nodes, which regular users are not allowed to create):
cd /tmp/initrd
find . | cpio -o -H newc > /tmp/initrd.temp
gzip -c /tmp/initrd.temp > /boot/kernel26.img
EDIT: As far as editing files goes: once you extract the image, you can edit the extracted files normally, as any other files. After you're done editing, just compress it back with the method above.

[solved] Is /bin/mknod still included in kernel26.img

Hello,
everybody
I`ve got a problem.
In this topic:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=49200&p=2
Larch has the problem that if i larchify an existing system
it does not include /bin/mknod in the larch.img, but if i
mklarch a system, it does.
After examine my now used system`s kernel26.img, mknod isn`t there,
even in the fallback image.
My hooks are:
HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide scsi sata filesystems"
just in case if you like to know it.
Has anything changed or is my system not ok?
To examine your kernel26.img
use
cd /boot/
gunzip -dc kernel26.img >kernel26.dec.img
and open kernel26.dec.img with archive-manager of gnome.
Greetings
and thanks for your answers

Thanks for the reply.
I looked into /usr/lib/klibc/bin/ mknod wasn`t there,
so i pacman -S klibc
reinstalling
Looked again it is there!
Did the same with the system in the vm (qemu).
Not there.
reinstalling
It`s there.
Thanks.
But what i don`t understand is, that they are totally
different systems.
Downloading the same iso 2008.06 again and will do a new install
in the vm.
Oh by the way do you know how to reinstall all packages of
the system, because i should do this now?
So solved. Don`t know what happened before (2 different systems) , but it`s ok.
Thank you a lot.
Edit:
"Oh by the way do you know how to reinstall all packages of

found it in the wiki.

How to mount an image-file?

Hi,
I have an EFI-partition on my hdd which drastically improves my bios-boot time. But I wanna take a closer look at it and what it does. Because I don't wanna mess this EFI-Partition I wanna work with a copy.
So I created an image with:
dd if=/dev/sdXX of=my_image.img
But how can I mount it now? I loaded the loop-module and tried an:
mount my_image.img /my/mountpoint -o loop
But he wants to know the fs-type. But he doesn't understand what efi is and always tells me it's and unknown filetype if I try:
-t efi
So is it not possible to mount and efi-image under linux? I would really like to take a look at it.

@EnvoyRising: No that's just for cd-isos.
@jakobm:
$ sudo mount my_image.img /my/mountpoint
mount: my_image.img is not a block device (maybe try `-o loop'?)
$ sudo mount my_image.img /my/mountpoint -o loop
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
$ sudo mount my_image.img /my/mountpoint -o loop -t auto
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
$ sudo mount my_image.img /my/mountpoint -o loop -t msdos
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
The same with every fs-type (like vfat..) I tried. So no matter what I try it seems not to work.

How to mount a volume on an Ubuntu server in Finder?

I am a newbe in such advanced functions, but I like to find solutions and it is hard for me to give up.
I have a MacBook 13,3 and an Ubuntu server. I have managed to connect to the a USB printer connected to the server. But I have not found out how to mount the server in Finder, so that I can use an external disk connected with USB as a Time Machine disk.
Can anyone help me, and please as simple and basic as possible :-)?

so i'll admit that I haven't done this but it would seem that since Ubuntu includes Samba you could, from 'Finder' click cmd-k and type in smb://[the path to the share]
that said I found this on the web:http://www.kremalicious.com/2008/06/ubuntu-as-mac-file-server-and-time-machine-v olume/
instead of mounting the disk via Samba, it tries to use a more native approach.....that said, this definitely looks more involved.

How to mount a sharepoint server from the finder

Can anyone help me with how to mount a microsoft sharepoint services server from the finder. I need to do this because I want to use the collaboration features in Acrobat 8. In order to create a shared review I need to be able to open the document from the sharepoint site with the full version of acrobat and I cannot do that from the web browser. From a PC I would choose to add a network location and the wizard creates a network location in the explorer, then I can access the sharepoint site (across the internet) like another file folder on my local network. I cannot seem to figure out how to accomplish the same thing on the mac. When I put in the URL for the share point site in the connect dialog from the finder it opens a webdave dialog box asking for a domain name and I have no idea what that is and it tells me the password or user name is not correct. Any help would be appreciated

You might want to pose this question in the networking forum too.

How to mount USB & CDROM drives from single user mode - Solaris boot disk?

Hi All,
I need to carry out ufsrestore on a single newly replaced system disk (no redundancy / mirroring) from either USB or CDROM drives from the following steps:
( i ) GRUB => e, e, cdrom –s, Enter, b (boot from Solaris 10 x86 media).
( ii ) Choose menu 1 for Install Solaris Interactive Mode to reach single user mode.Below are the commands that I have tried in single user mode without success:
mount –r –F pcfs /dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0 /cdrom (after unmount Solaris CD)
mount: /dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0 is not a DOS filesystem.
svcadm –v enable smserver
svcadm: Pattern ‘smserver’ doesn’t match any instances
svcadm enable autofs
svcadm: Pattern ‘autofs’ doesn’t match any instances
devfsadm
devfsadm: mkdir failed for /dev 0s1ed: Read-only file system
mkdir /mnt
mkdir: Failed to make directory “/mnt”; Read-only file systemPart of the problem is due to the current READ ONLY filesystems which does not allow the creation of mount point such as /mnt.
I have been able to create both / root (/dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0) and /export/home (/dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0) filesystems with newfs that are awaiting for restore using ufsrestore.
The only option I am left with is to attach a secondary disk to install Solaris 10 on either of them before bring the system to multi-user mode so that service such as volmgt, autofs, volfs are available to access USB & CDROM drives.
Any suggestion on how to resolve this issue?
Many thanks,
Jack

Hi JKGN,
Is the directory a located under the root filesystem. ie /a? Are there any other mount point for say USB drive as well? I am not in a position to try it out right now but will get back
to you soon on whether /a exist or not.
Btw, the last thing I managed to do on this system at the time was added a secondary 1TB internal disk with the intention to restore both / and /export/home data onto this disk while
making use of all the disk device management services such as the following services only available in a fully installed Solaris system (both single & multi-user modes) installed on the
primary disk:
# svcs smserver
STATE          STIME    FMRI

As a result, I am left with no option but the need to rebuild this system with only a single primary disk while in single user mode. However, the single user mode that I am in is the
one from Solaris installation disk with restrictive (_cannot create folder for mount point or running disk management utilities_) capability such as those services just covered, compared to one from a completed Solaris installation system with full access to all filesystems and utilities / commands in general.
I would very much value your assistance on how to mount both CD & USB in this restrictive limited Read Only OS (assume that it is running from memory) in order to get complete access to
the blank primary disk so that full restore with ufsrestore could take place.
Thanks in advance,
Jack

How to mount USB Flash Drive

Hello again Arch-Linux users,
I always search google very hard and for months (off and on) I search for how to mount a USB Flash Drive. Nothing ever work so I give up than try again months latter. I don't want to give up anymore and that is why I join this forum.
Here are some of the code I found on the net. Some of these commands will only re-mount the entire Arch-Linux running system in /mnt/usbstick.
sudo mount -o rw,noauto,async,user,umask=1000 /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbstick
... don't work it only re-mount the entire system
/dev/sda15 /mnt/usbstick vfat user,noauto,unhide 0 0
... don't work... I found nothing inside /mnt/usbstick
mount -t vfat -o rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=mixed,uid=1001,gid=100,umask=077,iocharset=utf8 /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbstick
... don't work... here is the error i get:
mount: /dev/sda1 already mounted or /mnt/usbstick busy
mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is mounted on /
It strange that most USB mount commands use the operating system partition itself- example: /dev/sda1 as the device for USB device, while others use /dev/cdrom for cd - /dev/dvd for dvd and /dev/fd0 for floppy.
Could someone post the code that will easily mount a usb device under Arch_Linux.
I'm using Arch-Linux core-64 (08-2009)
Thanks in advance

Thanks fsckd,
I needed a rapid reply because I been wasting too much time not getting anything done because I needed to get pass this flash-drive thing. I can now have a secure back-up in my pocket on USB to go. Arch-Linux does it better for what I seen while just dd'ing on disk.

How to mount external drives

Being new to iMac and connecting four external drives I need to know how to mount and dismount them

noondaywitch
Thanks for your help and I've followed your reply and yes I can see how to mount and eject drives.
Probably it would have helped if I had told you that my drives are all USB.
All connected to a small four way hub which is then connected to one USB socket in back of computer.
One - I use as a music drive and is a 160 gb iomega
Two - is a partitioned drive for Photoshop use 340 gb WD
Three - is a drive which has all my ex-Windows computer files and is one TB WD
Four - is a Video and Film drive of one TB WD
Five - is my dedicated auto backup drive which is of one TB WD and is connected directly to a USB socket of computer.
I normally set my computer to sleep until the next time I'm using it, then when I do go to use it, I get the warning message regarding drive was not ejected. Didn't have problems like this on PC so I became worried that in time I'm going to loose files and or the complete drive. Which one is giving me this message is also a bit of trial and error problem. Like suck it and see.....lol.
Anything else you can help me with this query would be most helpful and appreciated. Like do I have to eject all drives before leaving computer and then mount all the drives again for next session.

John

How to mounted oracle database automatically in oracle version 8.1.7?

i want to know,how to mounted oracle database automatically in oracle version 8.1.7?

Does this mean you are not using the WIndows operating system, or you doi not want to do this 'manually' using some point and click method?
If this means, "do it automatically for reboots" and you are using the Windows OS, you need to set up a service and set it to automatic at reboot. Or, again in a Windows environment but at commnand line, use "net start {service name}" - as described in the manual.

How to mount network share on lion permanently

I want to know how to mount a network share from my NAS on mountian lion.
I have seen and tried the suggestions about using command+k or the "go connect to server" and mounting that way so the password for the share is put into the keychain, then dragging the now mounted share to the system preferences user login items.
However this isn't satisfactory. It causes windows to pop up for each share that I have when logging in.
What I Want is for the share to appear as a mounted hard drive in the left navigation column of the finder window. I'd also like to be able to make a shortcut to the share on my desktop (or put it in my dock bar). If it shows up under devices that is perfection okay too, just so it's there somewhere logical.
The pop up windows simply clutter up the desktop, and if they are closed, then the share is closed too, and then there is a manual process of having to use the very tedious command+k or go connect to server method to connect again.
I need them to be able to click and open the share. I don't need them wasting time putting in share paswords and the link over and over.. the share should just be there for them as they work through the day. And if they close the folder/window, then it should be easy to get back to it.
This is possible on windows and I want these mounts to work the same way.
note: my NAS uses smb

That should work. You could try deleting the passwords in Keychain associated with it and try it again.
Another route: Create Applescript:
Select the network drive and get info on it. Copy the server address. Open up Applescript Editor in the Utilities folder and create a new script. Type in mount volume, add space, "paste server address within quotations", and save as application to your documents. Run it from within applescript editor to verify it works. When it asks for a passwork, save it in Keychain.
Under system preferences/accounts/login items, click the + sign to add and select the saved application.
