help with netatalk running on ram disk

Hi, a newb who needs some help here. installed ffp 0.5 and everything seemed to be running fine, so I went ahead and installed netatalk according to these directions:

http://dns323.kood.org/howto:appletalk

I can get to the newly created afp share fine, but I only have 1.8 MB free in Finder. (I'm on OSX.)  I've deduced that AFP is running with the ram disk as the root. I tried to create an afp share that went to /mnt/HD_a2 but that just hangs.

Can anyone help me with the commands or chroot or whatever that I have to do to get this working correctly?


....
Some background-- I had an old fun_plug script running with an etch installation on 1.06. (It might well have been an old Fonz, though I can't recall--definitely had busybox on it.) I went and installed the 1.08 beta and everything went bonkers. I managed to revert to 1.06 but my fun_plug was no longer working correctly. So, I went ahead at that point and ditched the old fun_plug and upgraded to ffp 0.5. I can tell the remnants of the old fun plug are gone (for example, in the etch/mnt directory, the folders aren't linked up as they used to, nor does my old .linruxrc file run and chroot into etch anymore)... so I THINK I'm basically running a clean install of ffp 0.5 and netatalk (not , but I wanted to mention all this in case

Re: help with netatalk running on ram disk

another note, creating a share in AppleVolumes.default that points to /mnt/HD_a2 makes any attempt to connect stall out indefinitely. weirdly, if i make a share that points at /mnt/HD_a2/video (a subdir I created), the full free space shows, and I can connect to it! I could put everything in a subdir of HD_a2, but that seems like a copout.

Anyone have any thoughts about this? Or confused by my question? Please let me know what info you need to make a diagnosis. Thanks everyone.

Re: help with netatalk running on ram disk

I find it hard to believe I've stumped the whole board here. Netatalk only showing 2MB free. DNS-323 actually has 150+GB Free. Running under FFP 0.5 Discuss.

A walkaround to your problem perhaps.

Re: help with netatalk running on ram disk

I've found out the actual cause for this. It's some hidden files that cause the stalling of AFP connection to the volume.
Creating a new folder solve it because those broken hidden files are not inside.
Just remove those hidden files and all will be good again.
Example of some of those hidden files are .AppleDB .AppleDesktop
Hope it helps.
