**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Oct 31 02:59:56 2005 Oct 31 09:08:27 hi can anyone tell me how to compile a Kernel for a Openslug system? Oct 31 09:09:49 There is alot of info on the wiki for that. Quite ok walkthrus I think. Oct 31 09:10:30 sorry i only found some for Unslung and nothing for Openslug Oct 31 09:11:51 can you give me a link? Oct 31 09:11:52 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/OpenSlug/CustomisingTheBuild Oct 31 09:12:10 Maybe try from there, I never got too far into OE stuff really. Oct 31 09:13:56 okay thanks a lot i will try Oct 31 09:15:12 kami22: You building yourself a new kernel? Good luck anyway! Oct 31 09:17:41 thx a lot no i will only try to activat traffic shaper and PVR Oct 31 09:19:23 kami22: PVR? What sort of hw? I think effem has been playing a bit around with that aswell, maybe search for him too. Know he keeps some note pages. Oct 31 09:20:31 yes i know i wrote some Emails with him Oct 31 09:20:58 but i am still searching for a WINTV PVR :) Oct 31 12:56:33 Is it possible to run a cms like typo3 on the slug? Oct 31 13:09:04 maybe, if you will choice an application which use perl/mysql as backend Oct 31 13:09:33 or php or python Oct 31 13:13:37 I think typo3 uses php/mysql etc. Oct 31 13:19:21 thne it could work Oct 31 13:19:31 s/thne/then Oct 31 13:20:09 k Oct 31 13:20:57 I'll give it a try when I understand a lot more about installing the packages Oct 31 13:21:23 At this moment I am a newbie :P Oct 31 13:21:45 First a mailserver....then a webserver.... Oct 31 13:23:36 That's hard enough at the moment... Oct 31 13:32:54 Which mailserver would you recommend? Oct 31 13:38:40 afair, there is a postfix package avaiable Oct 31 13:40:44 if you plan to do something with apache/php, you should read this thread http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nslu2-general/message/2939 Oct 31 13:41:21 thnx...I am just reading the Yahoo-site Oct 31 13:42:07 @cap: and postfix has pop/smtp? Even webmail ;o) ? Oct 31 13:44:34 isn't exchange ;), more information is on http://www.postfix.org/ , there is also cyrus-imapd as package avaiable, a pop-server, dunno Oct 31 13:47:24 thnx Oct 31 13:48:45 np Oct 31 13:53:11 and webmail? :) Oct 31 13:56:02 if something like squirrelmail is php-based, then you could try it Oct 31 13:56:17 k thnx again Oct 31 13:56:26 again, np Oct 31 13:57:01 there is also a package avaiable, called xmail, cpmbined smtp/pop server Oct 31 13:57:09 combined Oct 31 13:58:19 I saw that but there was't any installationinfo... Oct 31 14:01:30 Hello.. I need some help.. First: How the fu** do i change the passwd file - if im using windows? Oct 31 14:02:33 in the same kind, as if you using linux Oct 31 14:02:58 which firmware is on the nslu?= Oct 31 14:03:16 Okey.. V2.3R24 Oct 31 14:03:43 well, why you will change the passwd file Oct 31 14:04:10 To get in thru telnet.. Oct 31 14:04:36 i see no realy reason on this topic with this firmware, install uNSLUng-5.5 Oct 31 14:04:58 Okey.. Thx.. Oct 31 14:05:18 But.. Second: Im only got a 16mb usbflash memory - Why can i change passwords and stuff with it?? it just says: No HDD installed ? Oct 31 14:05:43 if not, afair, make a backup of your configuration, copy it to your winbox, untar it Oct 31 14:06:10 sorry, first, add a new user via the webif Oct 31 14:06:18 then save your configuration Oct 31 14:06:23 I cant.. "No hdd installed" ! Oct 31 14:06:24 :( Oct 31 14:06:42 then use a unix aware editor Oct 31 14:06:51 moment, one after the other ;) Oct 31 14:07:12 and copy the password field of your new user to the pw field of user root Oct 31 14:07:29 tar it again, and replace the configuration on the nslu Oct 31 14:07:39 Unix aware editor?? huh? Oct 31 14:07:48 well, the other thing is, your usb-mem is to small Oct 31 14:08:24 unix aware editor is something like textpad Oct 31 14:08:26 Ok.. I going to buy one later.. its on my "buylist" :P Oct 31 14:08:54 which can handle cr/lf versus lf at the end of the line correctly Oct 31 14:09:04 Ok.. Oct 31 14:09:10 whcih is different on unix Oct 31 14:09:36 caplink811_log: Ok.. But... How should i backup/download the config (tar file) ?? Do i realy just need to buy a bigger usbmem? Oct 31 14:10:08 yes, the slug needs 256Mbyte minimum Oct 31 14:10:39 or at least 10GByte HD with linksys fw R24 Oct 31 14:10:58 or 1GB with uNSLUng fw Oct 31 14:11:06 Ok.. DAMN! :P :( Oct 31 14:11:58 cause, the typically format is part3 swap ~55MB, part2 conf ~110MB, and part1 the rest Oct 31 14:12:38 sorry, the remain Oct 31 14:12:52 Ok.. Oct 31 14:14:17 dunno, if it is possible to save the config wia webinterface without a data storage media attached.. Oct 31 14:14:52 :( Ok.. Maybe if i upgrade the frimware? Oct 31 14:15:08 dunno Oct 31 14:16:08 Ok.. Thx anyway.. Oct 31 14:16:58 But hey.. How do i upgrade the frimware WITHOUT getting a Timeout in my browser?? I used the webinterface.. Oct 31 14:22:41 Hello? Oct 31 14:29:51 But hey.. How do i upgrade the frimware WITHOUT getting a Timeout in my browser?? I used the webinterface.. Oct 31 14:30:00 ie or another browser?

Oct 31 14:55:20 you've reboot the nslu between your tries? Oct 31 14:55:41 your winbox and your slug are connected via a switch? Oct 31 15:16:18 1: Yes Oct 31 15:16:22 2: Yes Oct 31 15:16:32 3: Yes Oct 31 15:16:50 4: No, A hub (Same shit) Oct 31 15:16:59 caplink811_log: Now then?

Oct 31 15:41:05 :) Oct 31 15:41:12 Im so happy! :D Oct 31 15:41:12 surely the redboot, etc, etc is just a ROM, and can never b overwritten, so unless the hardware itself is damaged u can always recover?

Gunja.. :) Oct 31 15:44:23 I thought I'd screwed it, but I hadn't Oct 31 15:44:24 the HoldTheResetButtonFor10SecsWhileSwitchPowerOn is more painless Oct 31 15:44:58 is it? just using admin admin, upgrade worked lovely for me Oct 31 15:45:27 I upgraded the firmware.. and it worked.. can i flash to unslug now?? in the same way or via the webinterface? Oct 31 15:45:28 so, you should go and buy a data-storage media bigger as 16MB Oct 31 15:45:30 i thought I'd killed mine hence teh redboot, but didnt need to after i found out what was wrong (i.e. not recognising the flash disk fast enuf for unsling) Oct 31 15:45:50 caplink811_log: Yepp.. But not today.. Oct 31 15:45:52 I bought a 1GB flash drive Oct 31 15:45:53 ~patience Oct 31 15:45:53 patience is a goodness Oct 31 15:46:10 u really need to Jine! lol Oct 31 15:46:17 specially installing apache, etc, etc Oct 31 15:46:32 Yeah.. I know.. need a flashdrive.. :P but not today.. :P Oct 31 15:46:48 heh, just a tip if u're gonna shove the flash drive into port 1 Oct 31 15:46:56 u need to modify one of the timeout files Oct 31 15:47:12 Ehh. port1?? im using port2? :S Oct 31 15:47:25 Why should i use port1? :S Oct 31 15:47:30 port2 is working? :S Oct 31 15:47:33 I used port1, as it was the main port Oct 31 15:47:46 it should be equal Oct 31 15:48:08 only the difference is unslinging to disk1 or disk2 Oct 31 15:48:12 depending on the port Oct 31 15:48:30 yeah, okies, but if u're wanting make the flash drive the main os then you may need to modify /linuxrc to up the timeout Oct 31 15:48:52 will save u 2 reflashes and 2 hours hunting the mailing list Oct 31 15:49:24 Ok :P Im saving this IRC log so i got it later.. :D Oct 31 15:50:15 heh good idea Oct 31 15:50:30 basically u need to check the flash drive is mounted and being used as the rootfs Oct 31 15:50:38 with df is how I checked Oct 31 15:50:42 Ok.. It sounds hard.. :P Oct 31 15:50:59 this is after unsling disk2 (if u're using port 2) Oct 31 15:51:13 u maybe lucky and it dont have the same problem as me Oct 31 15:51:14 all needed and important information is on the wiki, use the force luke, aeh use the search button Oct 31 15:51:37 :D Hehe..
