[Elphel-support] external hdd

[Carlos Padial]

hi oleg

now i have removed again the internal hdd and want to try the external sata.

i have an external hdd with two partitions:
dev/sdc1 344gb ext4
dev/sdc2 121gb ext2

i want to use the second one, i formatted it not to big (120gb, as the
internal).  I formatted the ext2 in my computer, not in camera...

i get this in the boot log:

and in the camera from telnet:

  31     5      12288 mtdblock5

------------------------------
in camogmgui i see the partition detected but cant mount it.

dont know if it is detecting the right partition. It's right to use an hdd
with more than one partition?

thanks again.
