TI2019 - SMB3 / linux based boot image

Thread needs solution

I can mount smb3 shares on the console with

mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt -o,username=XXX,dom=YYY,vers=3.0

 

However, using the gui, I get an error message in /var/log/messages and /tmp/asamba.log

 

This can be circumvented by adding the following to "/bin/product"

export ASAMBA_MOUNT_OPTS=vers=3.0

 

Is there a way to make this permanent? Some of the files on the .ISO are probably a compressed filesystem, but which one must I edit?

So far I've found out that the files "dat11.dat" and "dat3.dat" are gzip compressed cpio images. One is for the 64bit kernel, the other one for the 32bit one.

I've manged to update both of these files as described before, but fail to recreate the bootable iso image.

 

P.S. I find it very odd that TI2019 would try to mount a cifs share with "vers=1.0" and not try higher versions first.

A simpler but temporary workaround would be:

 

Press F11 in the "bios" mode boot loader and append the following after "quiet" (with a space after it)

export ASAMBA_MOUNT_OPTS=vers=3.0
