I've just uploaded new packages to the non-free section of extras-devel (the free section is impossible as autobuilder doesn't have fiasco-gen yet).
I reverted to "optimize for speed" (as in the Nokia kernel) due to instabililties and added unionfs.

request: I'm looking for a kernel with either nilfs2 or LogFS support, and the tools for making partitions with either FS, or something similar. can anyone help
edit: ext3 on my mmc seems to get stuck in read only mode in the middle of a large file transfer for no apparent reason. that and for some reason, formats but doesn't like ext4

after reading http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7345/ I'm curious how well NILFS2 would perform on the N900.
NILFS2 is now in the new kernel and I've uploaded nilfs-tools, iozone3 and postmark to extras-devel.
please test it.

I don't get it. There is nothing there but a list of a few developers from 2008. Where is the project/info/meat? The svn is 18 months old and just some empty folders. What's the background?
That;s why I created this project, see
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/list...rs/38762#38762 (and links inside for more background)
Sadly (as hinted in the announcement) my spare time is limited and others who joined look busy too. I planned to move all my kernel stuff from http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/ there (next time when I do something) and then also add stuff done by other people but I was hit by Real Life and never fully recovered :-)
Maybe there are better choices than garage now for such project (are there?) but still I think that definitely there should be some coordination between people building kernels so users can use just one community kernel and developers know about other people's patches.

Then, it would be easier.to generate simple howtos: "Grab the community kernel, enable such and such modules, etc".

it's a general problem with kernels build within scratchbox.
My kernel-flasher-maemo package depends on the kernel and modules packages,
so it's impossible to forget the modules. It also doesn't overwrite the stock modules
so that you can revert by just reflashing the stock kernel.
