22:41.42rahI want to learn about the structure of the storage on my phone, a motorola dext (android): what gets modified by updating the "recovery", and what gets modified by installing Cyanogenmod
22:41.54rahI can't seem to find anything that explains these matters
22:42.07rahis there anywhere that explains these matters?
22:53.40arrrghhhrah: this is #htc-linux
22:53.58rahindeed it is
22:54.06raharrrghhh: why are you telling me this?
22:54.18arrrghhhyou're asking about moto things in an HTC room?
22:54.26arrrghhhsomeone might answer you, but chances are slim to none
22:54.33arrrghhh#android is probably your best bet.
22:54.44arrrghhhthis room is about porting Android to WinCE phones
22:54.46rahthank you
22:54.48arrrghhhwell, porting Linux
22:54.49arrrghhhnp
22:55.12rpierce99meh, cyanogenmod likely overwites /system, recovery is part of the bootloader i believe, used to help flash new roms, not sure, I don't have a native android
22:55.55stinebdrecovery isn't part of bootloader
22:56.03stinebdit's a tiny little "android" filesystem
22:56.26rpierce99stored in a file somewhere?
22:56.33stinebdflash partition
22:57.50rahstinebd: flash "partition"?
22:58.06stinebdyes
22:58.21rahas in, like a disk partition?
22:58.36stinebdbasically yes
22:58.51rahso the "recovery" is stored on the same memory as the main operating system?
22:58.56*** join/#htc-linux Cass (~Cass@188.220.34.222)
22:59.18stinebdon the same MTD, usually
22:59.27rahok
22:59.30rahwhat is this "/system"?
22:59.40rpierce99a flash partition :P
22:59.52*** join/#htc-linux fpu (~nonperson@178-36-20-127.adsl.inetia.pl)
22:59.54fpuhey guys
23:00.22fpuI'm having blast with Debian on my Leo, but there's one problem left
23:00.26fputouchscreen works all right
23:00.32rahthat would be quite confusing if that's true; it implies a system of identifying partitions that mirrors a file system
23:00.33fpubut after I stop touching it
23:00.42fpucursor goes instantly into left upper corner of the screen
23:01.29rpierce99in linux a partition is mounted to a file system location, in this case one of the mtd partitions is mounted to /system ( a folder in the root)
23:01.46rahrpierce99: of course
23:02.00rahrpierce99: but a mount point is not a partition
23:02.24rpierce99fine, it writes to the /system mount point or a partition on mtd, if you want to get technical
23:02.47rahI do want to get technical :-)
23:03.09rahwhat partitions are there?
23:03.26rpierce99different on each phone, that's where a motorola room would be a good idea
23:03.37rahis the root filesystem stored on a partition?
23:03.47rahhmm
23:04.01rpierce99if we're being technical is there ever a file system not stored on a partition?
23:04.24stinebdyes
23:04.27rahif it's an in-memory filesystem like a ramfs then yes
23:04.36rahor tmpfs
23:04.48rahthat's what I'm asking :-)
23:05.14rahis the root filesystem stored on a partition (or is it created in memory?)
23:06.52stinebdit will usually be in a partition
23:08.39rahso if I understand this, the flash storage of an android device is basically treated like a hard disk in a normal desktop system, with various partitions containing different purposed storage space and file systems?
23:09.12fpuI'm told this problem is because of driver in the kernel
23:10.44rahassuming that's the case, I'm wondering if there is any way to backup/restore the entirety of the memory, like dd'ing a disk device under a desktop system?
23:11.19rpierce99many recovery systems have facilities built in for exactly that
23:11.50rahI see
23:15.08fpuis there anyone here fluent with kernel leo driver?
23:15.19fpuI have code in front of me and maybe there's quick fix
23:15.24fpuit seems to be a bug anyway
23:24.35rahrpierce99, stinebd: thank you for your assistance, you've been very helpful
