You may try to use my work geom_map (split flash by slices, like geom_redboot, but via hints) and geom_ulzma (based on geom_uzip, but compress blocks with lzma). Now it work on device with 4M of flash and run IPSec. Previously I test this modules on ARM MV88F5182 board (D-Link DNS-323) Some info here http://wiki.ddteam.net/wiki.cgi?page=DIR%2D320+FreeBSD Mercurial repo here http://my.ddteam.net/hg/BASE/ >> >> Regards, >> -- >> Rui Paulo >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> freebsd-arm@freebsd.org mailing list >> http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-arm >> To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-arm-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- Alexandr Rybalko <ray@dlink.ua> aka Alex RAY <ray@ddteam.net>home | help
