• Removed cards can be accessed natively in Linux or OS X, or on Windows with the Ext2FS driver
([1] or [2]).
• On older firmware (v2.3), the limited JFFS space can be used to hold the drivers to load support for
the SD card.
Add USB Storage
• Routers with USB storage like Linksys WRTSL54GS or ASUS WL-500g Premium can have
firmware with built-in USB support and then /jffs mounted on the USB device. To enable USB on
these devices see: USB_storage
♦ V24 and later firmware: USB support is available within Mega and some Mini builds.
• Using V24SP1 Mega on an Asus WL-500W with external USB HDD:
To mount the USB drive, and enable /jffs
mount /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /mnt
mkdir /mnt/jffs
mount /mnt/jffs /jffs
• Also enable JFFS2 support in either web-GUI (tab: Administration -> tab: Management -> section:
JFFS2 Support)
or with the command
nvram set sys_enable_jffs2=1
• To use ipkg also create folder /jffs/tmp/ipkg
mkdir /jffs/tmp
mkdir /jffs/tmp/ipkg
Using CIFS (Client Samba): Storing /jffs content remotely
One option is to create a share on the network and mount it on the router at /jffs using CIFS. Exact steps at
CIFS
Overview:
• Enable JFFS in the web-GUI or put the following command in a Script or Startup Command.
nvram set sys_enable_jffs2=1
• Create a share on a CIFS-capable server called jffs.
♦ Standard Microsoft Windows Shared Folder
♦ Other operating systems may refer to SMB or Samba
