ok, i remounted mtdblock0 as rw and deleted system.log, this seems to have made
just enough space for the config settings, df now reports:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mtdblock0 58 58 0 100% /mnt/mtd

All those files, but set_*, are from DLink firmware.
As you have not cleared settings, they are still there, occupying scarce flash
memory space.
Alt-F doesn't automatically remove the vendor's configuration files from flash
in the eventuality that the user wants to reflash it back.
However, the vendor's firmware keeps a backup of mtdblock0 in mtdblock1 (or the
other way around). Alt-F only uses (for now) mtdblock0.
It would be interesting to compare the contents of these two devices, and if
they are equal Alt-F could provide a button in its web interface to copy
mtdblock1 contents to mtdblock0, or even do it automatically when detecting
that the user is flashing a vendor firmware.
Are you willing to execute the following commands, after telneting/ssh the box
as root?
mkdir -p /mnt/mtd0 /mnt/mtd1
mount -r /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt/mtd0
mount -r /dev/mtdblock1 /mnt/mtd1
diff -Nq /mnt/mtd0 /mnt/mtd1
umount /mnt/mtd0 /mnt/mtd1
This would report different and missing files between mtdblock0 and mtdblock1
Thanks

the only different files are the missing system.log in mtd0 and
set_2010-11-26_13:22:35.tgz from mtd1, which is the saved settings i assume.
so, i guess i am free to wipe all the dlink related settings from mtd0, and i
can restore them if for some reason i want to go back to the original firmware.

Good.
I will offer the possibility of recovering the original firmware settings when
flashing a vendor's firmware (my TODO2 list) and in the settings web page.
Thanks

Do not close issue, let others clearly see it.

Can't be fixed -- if there is not enough flash space available, the only option
is to clear the vendors settings, which is a no-go when reloading.

Now, when saving settings, the file "system.log" is removed from flash.
This will mitigate the problem, but will not solve it.
Flash space for settings is scarce (64KB) and is used simultaneously by Alt-F
and the vendor's firmware when Alt-F uses the reload method.
When Alt-F is flashed this problem does not happens, and it is possible to
store up to eight sets of settings, tagged with date/time of creation.
As there are two places in flash where to store settings, and Alt-F only uses
one of them, the other always has the last vendor's settings; when re-flashing
a vendor's firmware, Alt-F prompts you for recovering the vendor's settings
stored in the second location into the first. It was not tested if this will in
fact fully restore the vendor's settings.
There is nothing more that can be done, this problem will be present for all
future Alt-F releases when it is used using the reloaded method.

Hi
I'm also seeing this problem. However, I've flashed with Alt-F-0.1RC3, kernel
2.6.35.14.
At the moment, I have an 8GB USB key as the only drive in the system, running
ext3.
It's got a 500MB swap partition
# df -h /mnt
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 30.0M 256.0K 29.7M 1% /
# df -h /mnt/sda2
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 6.8G 143.9M 6.7G 2% /mnt/sda2
# df -h /mnt/USB_8G_1/
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 30.0M 256.0K 29.7M 1% /
what should I do?
