Recovery / Edify / Data Mount Issue

Hi,

I'm trying to mount /data with GT-5570I using recovery / updater-script.

However, I'm stuck with an issue, I just don't know what's happening :

running the script :

Code:

run_program("/system/xbin/busybox","mount","-t rfs","/dev/stl11","/data");

the log in /cache/recovery/last_log says :

Code:

Mount : cannot mount /dev/stl11 on /data : no such device

however, if I start adbd using

Code:

run_program("/sbin/adbd")

right in recovery, and sending

Code:

# /system/xbin/busybox mount -t rfs /dev/stl11 /data

/data mounts fine.

Now the big question :
Why isn't it possible to mount /data using recovery script, but running adbd in recovery, I am able to mount /data in recovery ?

Any ideas ?

Wrong section bro!! This is for dev only, post such things in general!!

It's nothing general, it's dev actually. I'm not talking about how to enter recovery, but about scripting and developing own recovery / custom recovery.

But thanks so far for your answers.

recovery already has mount command...try this one to mout your /data partition

Code:

mount("rfs", "EMMC", "/dev/block/stl11", "/data");

if you want to use run_program command, you can make a file contain

Code:

#!/system/bin/sh
mount -t rfs /dev/block/stl11 /data

put that file on your root folder of your zip file. to run the script you'll need to use these command on updater script

Code:

package_extract_file("<your filename>", "/tmp/<your filename>");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/<your filename>");
run_program("/tmp/<your filename>");

the first method is easier...

If you are still using update-script then, I suggest you switch to updater-script and update-binary since, latest clockwork mod (v3 and above use these Edify scripting methods...).

I believe you are trying to mount data to copy files to or from /data/ partition on your device...
Here's a script to do so in recovery and I'm sure it's the exact thing you are looking for :

Good luck!

try it

Code:

mount("rfs", "/dev/block/stl11", "/data");

This one is leading into "E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (Status 0)"

last_log says that :
MountFn, 53
MountFn : type is rfs
MountFn : rfs type
MountFn result is : /data

The first one doesn't work with my update-binary as it's the new AOSP one only taking 3 variables instead of four.
using mount("rfs", "/dev/block/stl11", "/data") or mount("emmc","/dev/block/stl11","/data") leads to "E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (Status 0)"

Using the second one, the sh method, this leads into the same error message, "No such device".

I'm guessing that the main problem might be some driver/init adbd does for mounting ....
