On a linux pc, run the following:Code: [Select]mount -t ext2 -o loop initrd.tns /mntcd /mnt/etcvi inittabcd /umount /mnt
mount -t ext2 -o loop initrd.tns /mntcd /mnt/etcvi inittabcd /umount /mnt
But now, I have new problems, like linux asking me to login again and again after a few seconds/minutes, and I can only type a few characters like + or enter.Also, why is home mapped as ctrl and not the "ctrl" key?
can someone tell me how to connect an usb drive to linux on my nspire cx?
cmdline root=/dev/ram init=/bin/bash

I think you don't have a CAS CX...
Try to useCode: [Select]cmdline root=/dev/ram init=/bin/bashnow you should be able to run commands without being thrown out.
You can buy a OTG USB cable with a mini USB 5-pin A connector on one side and ot the other side there should be female USB plug.Or, if you are impatient and if you can solder: (my selfmade solution) You desolder a double-USB-plug from an old mainboard and connect all 8 pins in a way that you get 4 parallel connections. That was the hardest part. Then plug in the end of a mini USB A connector (you can use the cable which came came with your CAS for exchanging data between two calcs; plug in the thicker end which says 'A' and leave the other end unconnected) and start linucx. While linucx running, deconnect the mini USB A cable and connect the standart cable (I mean the cable which you can connect to your CAS and to your PC) plug it in the CAS and the 'adapter' which you soldered before. The other port of your 'adapter' should get connected to a powered USB hub and then you can connect all your devices to your hub.If you are booting from a USB stick you maybe should increase the rootdelay.
