Re: [gentoo-embedded] My first GNAP use: error: umount: /dev/loop/0

["Marcelo Coelho" <marcelocoelho@gmail.com>]

Hi!

Well, after a few "echos" i noticed that there was an endless loop
caused by the invocation of the gtest function invoked by the cleanup
function.

So a workaround could be changing lines 108 and 115 by

if [ $? ] ; then echo "Failed to unmount ${LOOP}" ; fi

and

if [ $? ] ; then echo "Failed to remove ${DIRTOREMOVE}" ; fi


Nevertheless, i'm thinking about using some other software that isn't
supported by GNAP, so i'll probably start using catalyst. Where does
GNAP stores the spec files it uses for catalyst?


Thanks for your help!
