--------------------------Translated by Google-----------------------------------------
The flash expander "enlarged" the flash with the help of an additional device.
Gemini or ICVS is not a requirement, should work on all images.
The idea is to flash expander CVS check-ins.

Function:
The complete folder / usr, "mount bind" to a device with outsourced. Means that the flash expander brings the greatest benefit when the same after flashing a new image to flash expander used and then further plugins or skins installed first. If one of the expander flash flash new test will no one can of course also the only way is no free space is created in Flash but, the current free space is "frozen".
Once you get the flash expander is used, one should not miss the stick or CF or SSD to remove everything, the box will boot up but only in this moment again the / usr used original, so all changes are lost. The unit for which the flash expander is used, can be found under the mount point "/ media / flash expander" again. Any negative side effects should be sought through flash expander does not arise (eg TPM-Check), as for programs / Enigma nothing has changed which, such as FTP can see no difference in the folder / usr.

The unit can still be used for other tasks, such as outsourcing Picon, only required it is no more. Augenzwinkern
If a swap on the device to be applied should first be disabled. The unit must be hung briefly make it new on / media / flash expander integrate.

Requirements:
A device that is formatted with ext 2/3/4 and has a partition. RAW devices are not supported. If one uses his stick as a RAW device, without partition, it can be for example in the Gemini device manager and re-initializing provided with a partition.

Installation:
The IPK into / tmp and install the Console "opkg install / tmp / flash expander *". Anyone who has installed a Gemini is easily in the console an "opkg update | opkg install flash expander" Perform. You can find the plugin then menu-> Add-ons to restart Enigma.

Anyone who wants can help you to flash expander continue to develop sources are available on the box. Recent Geminis are recommending that flash expander to use published.

Important:
flash expander is connected to any other image managers or Flash extensions have been tested in non.
