and if you do it with the latter method, make sure to unsquash/resquash as root, to preserve file ownership/permissions.

Alternately, you could probably stick a copy of the modified gps.conf in the rootfs, in /init.etc/. (Haven't tried this to make sure it'd work, but I don't see why not.)

Both of those methods contain a bunch more pitfalls than just using the ext2 system, though; so... yeah. Do that.

Playing with your fix now, sfhub. Will put together a new package with it and today's system.sqsh tonight, probably.
