Using the DiskOnChip with Linux OS

For example:

# ldd /sbin/mke2fs

libext2fs.so.2 /lib/libext2fs.so.2

libcom_err.so.2 /lib/libcom_err.so.2

libuuid.so.1 lib/libuuid.so.1

libc.so.5 /lib/libc.so.5

This will show which libraries are needed for the program mke2fs. In this example, it is necessary to copy the following four libraries:

#cp /lib/ext2fs.so.2 /diskonchip/lib

#cp /lib/libcom_err.so.2 /diskonchip/lib

#cp /lib/libuuid.so.1 /diskonchip/lib

#cp /lib/libc.so.5 /diskonchip/lib

If you have a long list of files to be copied, it is also possible to run the following command:

#	ldd /bin/* >	lib_list
# more lib_list
Copy the library loaders as follows:
#	cp lib/ld.so	/diskonchip/lib	(a.out loader)
# cp /lib/ld_linux.so /diskonchip/lib			(elf loader)

It is possible to use objcopy to reduce the size of the libraries. For example:

# objcopy -strip-debug /diskonchip/lib/lib.so.5
