**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jun 06 02:59:58 2007 Jun 06 03:00:04 i dunno Jun 06 03:00:56 i've seen packages always at version 0.0.n, yet very stable Jun 06 03:03:21 eno: does the Mastermake file download the source? Jun 06 03:05:01 it downloads all files needed to build, except some intel stuff Jun 06 03:11:45 eno: do i just run make? Jun 06 03:18:09 you're following MasterMakefile ? you probably don't want to build everything Jun 06 03:18:48 eno: make toolchain breaks Jun 06 03:19:00 what is the error message? Jun 06 03:19:37 ar.c:(.text+0xa42): undefined reference to `yyparse' Jun 06 03:21:19 gcc --version Jun 06 03:22:24 gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21) Jun 06 03:24:20 flex --version; bison --version; m4 --version Jun 06 03:26:52 flex: command not found; bison: command not found; GNU M4 1.4.8 Jun 06 03:28:05 alright, sudo apt-get install build-essential Jun 06 03:29:16 bison is still not installed Jun 06 03:33:18 look at the MasterMakefile setup-host-debian target for a complete list of packages needed Jun 06 03:33:38 k Jun 06 03:35:04 there might be more than what's needed for building optware package, but that's fine Jun 06 03:35:18 does unslung change the default led behavior from stock linksys? Jun 06 03:39:13 i dunno, ask mwester Jun 06 03:39:19 eno: now i'm getting another error, a malloc assertion Jun 06 03:41:59 try "make crosstool-dirclean toolchain" to start from anew Jun 06 03:48:06 thanks Jun 06 03:48:40 scant: ipkg install --force-depends ./kernel-module-input-*.ipk ./kernel-module-hid-*.ipk Jun 06 03:49:01 then create the device nodes in /dev per the UPS software docs Jun 06 03:50:03 mwester-laptop: let me try that Jun 06 03:53:13 mwester-laptop: i don't think those packages are there Jun 06 03:59:16 you download km.tgz, right Jun 06 03:59:30 yes Jun 06 04:00:09 that file, when untarred, contains all the kernel modules for Unslung + the new ones. Jun 06 04:01:26 mwester-laptop: there are no kernel-module-input-*.ipk files in the tar Jun 06 04:04:28 km.tgz: 1106082 bytes Jun 06 04:05:12 km.tgz: gzip compressed data Jun 06 04:05:18 looks ok here Jun 06 04:08:00 mkdir km;cd km;tar xzf /path/to/km.tgz; ls *input* Jun 06 04:09:26 kernel-module-input_2.4.22.l2.3r63-r18.1_ixp4xxbe.ipk Jun 06 04:11:49 Yep, that's the one. kernel-module-hid_2.4-etcetera-etcetera-etcetera is the other. Jun 06 04:11:57 ok Jun 06 04:12:25 mwester: so when i ./configure apcupsd -> shutdown program not found Jun 06 04:12:54 mwester-laptop: do i have to rename DO_Shutdown to shutdown? Jun 06 04:14:15 you'll probably have to write your own shutdown script. Don't rename; it'll break everything expecting the original name Jun 06 04:15:05 mwester-laptop: isn't my rc.halt diversion script my shutdown script? Jun 06 04:21:02 mwester-laptop: i know it's not a clean shutdown, but what's in my rc.halt is what i want to run to shutdown, is there anything else that i have to add to my rc.halt diversion script? is anything done before the rc.halt script is called on a power button push? Jun 06 04:46:54 what is the wall program? Jun 06 04:47:21 i mean, how can i get the wall program on unslung Jun 06 04:47:48 hi all Jun 06 04:49:27 i'm having no luck setting up the FTP on the NSLU2 with the Linksys firmware. for some reason it worked initially but some time after i de-underclocked the slug the ftp server stopped working. does anyone have any suggestions? Jun 06 05:46:55 anyone here use the wall cmd on unslung? Jun 06 06:04:39 does any1 reason to avoid using flash drives as the main root drive for unslung? Does the unslung behave well with flash drives in terms of read/write cycles Jun 06 06:04:41 Hello everyone! Jun 06 06:05:22 leesiulung: From what I read so far, the life cycles of current flash drives are high enough to last a few years in 24/7 use Jun 06 06:06:06 I've been asking that question to myself too, google has quite a few answers... Jun 06 06:06:32 I know I had a drive that on a weekly basis left in the system and edited word documents of. That drive lasted a measly 1 year.... wonderif that is a fluke. Jun 06 06:06:52 Is anyone using an "Elements by WD" hard drive and can confirm that it spins down when inactive? Jun 06 06:07:29 leesiulung: Was that a current one? Things have approved there... Jun 06 06:07:45 fairly recent, bought within a 1.5 years ago Jun 06 06:13:39 leesiulung: Trying to look up what I read about the life time of a flash drive, hang on Jun 06 06:14:10 this page has usefull info about setup for using flash drives:http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/Ext3flash Jun 06 06:36:05 leesiulung: I cant find it anymore, but I am sure a 2007 flash drive will last long enough Jun 06 06:36:17 leesiulung: And isn't there lifetime warranty in the states? Jun 06 06:37:08 I don't know about the lifetime warranty, but will look into that. Besides most of the time lifetime warranty means that it is only valid when the product is actively produced.... Jun 06 06:37:28 and not the actual life of the product Jun 06 06:38:07 I guess is there any point in doing all the steps in that page about flash drives on nslu2-linux.org link provided earlier Jun 06 06:39:46 leesiulung: It will reduce write access a lot Jun 06 06:40:02 But like I said before, I am not sure if that is really neccessary Jun 06 06:40:23 ok, I read that enabling those will also potentially cause problems with other software Jun 06 06:40:47 most likely, if you disable swap... Jun 06 06:42:05 Is 1GB drive more than sufficient for unslung? Jun 06 06:43:07 leesiulung: More is always better... I am planning to install Debian on my slug (which I do not have yet), so I'll get a 2 GB drive Jun 06 06:43:47 Well, other than unslung i would like to add subversion, and LAMP stack (dunno if this is possible with unslung though) Jun 06 06:45:41 leesiulung: About the memory, you could still put swap on the harddrive, I assume that would not be used if nothing much is running Jun 06 06:46:47 I intended to run everything of the flash drive for a low powered and quiet device. Jun 06 06:47:08 get a HDD that spins down Jun 06 06:47:28 that's my plan, as I will make the slug a media server Jun 06 06:49:02 is it fast enough as a media server? I'm assuming you mean only to serve media such video and music Jun 06 06:54:47 How can you install openssh without enabling telnet? Jun 06 07:00:46 leesiulung: Well, twonky or ushare or something like that, upnp Jun 06 07:04:59 MillhousePunkRock: that is very interresting. I will have to look into that. Jun 06 07:13:47 MillhousePunkRock: can you tell me if I need telnet access in order to install and configure ipk packages? Jun 06 07:19:13 I have to go, but it was a pleasure chatting with you MillhousePunkRock. Thank you for taking time to look up the flash drive read/write cycles. Jun 06 14:00:02 anyone here use the wall cmd on unslung? Jun 06 14:02:07 sorry not me Jun 06 14:17:26 hi i am having difficulty with the built-in ftp server - can anyone please help? Jun 06 14:49:39 anyone there? Jun 06 14:49:53 ~ask Jun 06 14:49:54 ask is probably Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise, and on-topic. Don't ask if you can ask a question first. Don't ask if a person is there, just ask what you intended to ask them. Better questions more frequently yield better answers. We are all here voluntarily or against our will. Jun 06 14:50:20 interesting Jun 06 14:50:55 does anyone have tips for setting up the nslu2 ftp server? it seemed to be working before but now i can't log in using my external ip address. if i ftp to 192.168.1.77 it works fine, though. Jun 06 14:53:47 port forwarding? Jun 06 14:53:53 Are you trying to access it locally? Jun 06 14:54:01 If so, your router will not probably support NAT loopback Jun 06 14:54:20 i tried accessing from a remote location yesterday and it didn't work Jun 06 14:54:34 but when i initially set up the nslu2 and a dyndns site it was working Jun 06 14:54:47 at some point it stopped working and i'm not sure why Jun 06 14:55:07 correction: it was working from within my network, i never tested it outside the network Jun 06 14:55:14 until yesterday, when it didn't work Jun 06 14:55:41 now i can only connect using the nslu2's address within the network, but for some reason the port is not being forwarded correctly or something like that Jun 06 14:59:52 crap, gotta go Jun 06 15:22:33 sounds just like bad forwarding, or wrong ip Jun 06 15:26:05 yup Jun 06 15:26:09 but he's gone Jun 06 15:26:10 so megh Jun 06 15:47:10 megh! Jun 06 15:48:45 lol Jun 06 15:53:52 hello... Jun 06 15:54:00 Reedy_Boy: Onomatopoeia Jun 06 15:54:07 i just remembered Jun 06 15:54:21 heh Jun 06 15:54:33 leesiulung, hi Jun 06 15:55:08 reedy_boy: seems like a lot of people is on this early (I'm in CA) Jun 06 15:57:59 Im in UK, so its nearly 5pm, not early for me ;) Jun 06 15:58:32 ha ha ha....

Jun 06 15:59:11 hmm Jun 06 15:59:23 30-40p depending on where you buy them Jun 06 15:59:29 $0.80c ? Jun 06 16:00:00 ah, not to bad. When I used to live in Europe and travel to england I would buy like boxes of it and ship it back on the plan. ;) Jun 06 16:00:12 plan = plane Jun 06 16:00:13 haha Jun 06 16:00:26 capbot has a typo fix Jun 06 16:00:37 s/fix/fixer Jun 06 16:00:38 It's the sour salty one, worchester sauce Jun 06 16:00:42 .s/fix/fixer Jun 06 16:00:48 how do I enter that command?

Jun 06 16:13:10 Reedy_Boy, do you know why unslung versions are all Beta releases? Wonder why there isn't an offical version, yet all major revisions are beta.... Jun 06 16:13:35 I dont really know, i believe mwester or someone said before Jun 06 16:13:46 well, im pretty sure someone has Jun 06 16:15:06 I recently revived my nslu2 (sort of) and mwester helped me yesterday. Jun 06 16:15:16 :) Jun 06 16:15:22 Good lot these are :) Jun 06 16:17:21 Yup, it is back up and I'm ready to install unslung!!! Well almost, have a lot of reading to do Jun 06 16:17:36 Yeah, mwester spent quite a bit of time aiding me Jun 06 16:17:50 You dont need to do that much reading really before doing unslung Jun 06 16:18:47 As long as you follow the instructions, dont skip ahead or pretend you know waht your doing, you should be fine Jun 06 16:20:07 well, I figured out how to install unslung, but the telnet part can get a little tricky... do I need that? can I skip that "somehow" and setup ssh Jun 06 16:20:24 funny enough, the minute you said don't skip steps, I went ahead and asked about skipping steps.... Jun 06 16:20:25 are you meaning the diversion is tricky? Jun 06 16:20:44 When you've installed it and rebooted Jun 06 16:21:01 You need to enable telnet by clicking a link on the web interface, login and then yuo can unsling it Jun 06 16:21:10 when its all unslung and confirmed, you can put SSH on Jun 06 16:21:27 I believe putting SSH in the default unslung install was on the cards for the next release Jun 06 16:22:49 leesiulung, does that make sense Jun 06 16:22:50 ? Jun 06 16:22:53 ohhh... according to notes: http://www.batbox.org/LinksysNSLU2TelnetAccess.html and http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/GainTelnetAccessViaTheClassicMethod Jun 06 16:23:36 reed_boy: well, I thought you had to edit the passwd file and tar it, then upload it to get telnet access Jun 06 16:23:44 Nope Jun 06 16:23:48 Those days are long gone Jun 06 16:24:00 uhhh... they should remove those pages.... Jun 06 16:24:02 That was pre 5.5 Jun 06 16:24:21 Yeah, there are some things that are bit out of date, but kept for archival purposes Jun 06 16:24:41 lol, I spent a crapload of time reading those pages and various sites to figure it out.... Jun 06 16:24:49 haha Jun 06 16:24:55 telnet, after sticking unslung on Jun 06 16:25:05 is only a few clicks on the web interface Jun 06 16:25:15 so, all I have to do is upgrade the firmware with unslung, go into the web interface and click a button. Jun 06 16:25:27 click a link, login and click a button Jun 06 16:25:28 yup Jun 06 16:25:58 what is the account credentials first time login? admin/admin? I just reset the sysconf area yesterday so it is default settings Jun 06 16:26:13 admin/password i think for the web interface Jun 06 16:26:31 Nope Jun 06 16:26:36 Your right - admin/admin Jun 06 16:26:36 I mean for telnet, what is the credentials? Jun 06 16:26:38 oh Jun 06 16:26:40 thats Jun 06 16:26:45 root and unSLUng Jun 06 16:26:50 ohhh, that is right Jun 06 16:27:05 I did read that somewhere... to use that Jun 06 16:27:07 Yeah Jun 06 16:27:21 the unslung 6.8 readme included is/should be about all the stuff you need Jun 06 16:28:02 but you can just go ahead and put the unslung firmware on Jun 06 16:28:08 to confirm, all the unslung versions I have seen so far (in the history file) says beta. There is no stable official release? Jun 06 16:28:34 Nope, but although they are beta, they are fine for use Jun 06 16:28:48 More stable/'better' than the alpha Jun 06 16:28:54 but i think its to do with they aint perfect Jun 06 16:29:18 but they seem to be fine, the linksys + more features Jun 06 16:29:23 I see... wish they would update the docs to reflect this... Jun 06 16:30:33 lol Jun 06 16:31:01 is there any other helpful reading resource available online, but nslu2-linux.org? preferably something more up to date? Jun 06 16:31:27 you really dont need it Jun 06 16:31:37 if you read the text file readme thats included with the firmware Jun 06 16:31:43 that will get you through the install fine Jun 06 16:32:21 Well, I'm not exactly a seasoned Linux user. I know basic stuff about the OS and use, but know nothing about maintaining and installing software. Jun 06 16:33:00 I wasnt when i first did mine :) Jun 06 16:33:32 Im gonna be here most of the time for the next few hours, so if you want to do it, im here if your stuck Jun 06 16:34:43 I would like to take you up on that, but can't right now. Perhaps I can catch you later here some other time. Jun 06 16:35:06 it doesnt take long to do it, but yeah, if im about, feel free to poke me Jun 06 16:37:21 hmmm.... let me see if I can do it right now.... Jun 06 16:40:51 once unslung is updated, and I got telnet access. What is the next steps? Jun 06 16:41:07 login Jun 06 16:41:19 put drive on, format it, unsling to the drive Jun 06 16:44:47 What size is the minimum recommended for the root drive? Jun 06 16:45:44 256mb memory stick i think is the min Jun 06 16:46:31 so 1GB is plenty to install subversion, openssh, ushare and LAMP? Jun 06 16:47:17 yeah Jun 06 16:47:20 should be fine Jun 06 16:47:21 Well Jun 06 16:47:31 Apache isnt generally reccomended - a bit heavyeight Jun 06 16:47:49 and mysql could mean it runs slow Jun 06 16:47:56 but thats a bridge to cross for later :) Jun 06 16:48:20 ok... 1GB it is Jun 06 16:48:27 Ive got a 512 on my nslu2 one Jun 06 16:48:30 ha ha ha ha (evil laughter) Jun 06 16:48:57 Tea time for me, back in a bit Jun 06 16:49:08 If you get stuck, shout someone may be able to help Jun 06 16:49:22 but you should be ok following the instructions to get it all installed and unslung Jun 06 16:49:22 :) Jun 06 16:49:35 then when it is, ipkg install openssh and leave it to install :) Jun 06 16:49:37 ok... catch you later. Thank you for all your help so far! Jun 06 16:49:42 back in a bit leesiulung Jun 06 16:51:53 i should add, i shouldnt be too long, its a quick and simple tea! Jun 06 16:57:53 reedy_boy, I will actually be away for another hour before I get to it.... If I'm lucky I will catch you then. Jun 06 17:30:03 leesiulung, im half back Jun 06 17:30:50 If your gone, i will still be here, or at least only out walking the dogs Jun 06 17:32:13 I'm around, but need to clear some work of my desk before I can tackle the nslu2. I will catch up with you when you get back from walking the dogs. Jun 06 17:33:43 righto Jun 06 17:33:45 :) Jun 06 18:40:02 does anyone know why i cant get in to my web interface, using unslung Jun 06 18:40:10 i did it some days ago Jun 06 18:40:27 but now its just dead, But its still up and running so its not broken Jun 06 18:48:17 leesiulung, just need a wash, be 10 mins or so, then im free for the next couple Jun 06 18:48:47 no problem. I still haven't gotten to it yet.. .but will soon. Thanks for letting me know. Jun 06 18:50:09 DigiI-, Can you ping it Jun 06 18:51:10 nope :( Jun 06 18:51:31 Tried restarting it? Jun 06 18:52:02 yep Jun 06 18:52:15 strange i still got it on my network Jun 06 18:52:31 and i can get to the hdd connected to it Jun 06 19:10:14 thats weird Jun 06 19:10:21 can you connect via telnet/ssh? Jun 06 19:10:26 leesiulung, im done Jun 06 19:12:45 No, Telnet isnt acctive Jun 06 19:12:48 active Jun 06 19:13:25 Weird Jun 06 19:13:35 You cant ping it, but yet you can get the shared files Jun 06 19:16:27 yea Jun 06 19:16:58 very weird Jun 06 19:17:19 i tryed install debian but didnt finish it, and after i still could connect and everything, but now its dead Jun 06 19:17:20 * mwester thinks it changed IP addresses at some point; Windows/SMB uses a different protocol for name->IP resolution and thus may know where the NSLU2 is, address-wise. Jun 06 19:17:44 Ah, now that's new information. It's not a standard OS load Jun 06 19:18:07 Or is it -- did you reflash the Linksys or unslung firmware back onto it? Jun 06 19:18:16 no Jun 06 19:18:35 thats why theres no web interface for one Jun 06 19:18:35 So basically, it's a partially-done debian firmware, in an unknown state Jun 06 19:18:45 hey mwester Jun 06 19:18:53 Greetings Reedy_Boy Jun 06 19:19:20 DigiI-, You're gonna have to reflash it using upslug or the sercomm upgrade tool Jun 06 19:19:31 ^^^ yep Jun 06 19:19:41 As you cant even finish the debian install Jun 06 19:19:41 Reedy_Boy whats easyest? Jun 06 19:19:51 Its a case of whether your on windows or linux Jun 06 19:19:55 to which one you use Jun 06 19:20:05 im in win xp Jun 06 19:20:11 the sercomm tool it is then Jun 06 19:20:39 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/RecoverFromABadFlash Jun 06 19:20:47 Or more specifically Jun 06 19:20:48 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Main/SercommFirmwareUpdater Jun 06 19:21:35 And you'll need Jun 06 19:21:35 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/UseTheResetButtonToEnterUpgradeMode Jun 06 19:22:54 caplink811-log, capbot should have a function to spam those links ;) Jun 06 19:23:59 In basic terms, you need to put it upgrade mode and use the sercomm tool to put the firmware back on Jun 06 19:24:18 Reedy_Boy use the reset button first before the sercomm? Jun 06 19:24:33 yup Jun 06 19:24:38 okok Jun 06 19:24:40 you could find the tool at http://jrbnet.de/joomla/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,45/func,select/id,1/ Jun 06 19:24:59 caplink comes through again!

Use "ar x packagename" to explode the package into components. Examine components and the various files to understand what goes where and which scripts and tools get run during install. Run manually to find which segfaults. Jun 06 19:34:26 so wget from the same link as the ipkg gets it from - http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/unslung/cross/qemu- Jun 06 19:34:26 libc-i386_2.3.3-3_armeb.ipk Jun 06 19:34:43 thanks Jun 06 19:35:21 leesiulung, you there? Jun 06 19:36:24 reedy_boy, still here Jun 06 19:36:29 working on it now Jun 06 19:36:50 I had to clear a memory stick Jun 06 19:36:56 ok Jun 06 19:38:17 mwester, is ar a seperate package or something? Jun 06 19:38:18 If i install xinetd Jun 06 19:38:41 do i have to disable the pld inetd then? Jun 06 19:38:50 *old Jun 06 19:43:17 bad: don't install xinetd unless you have installed (and are using) openssh instead of telnet. Also, if you are installing xinetd because the wiki tells you to in order to install an FTP server, please first check to see if the built-in FTP server will work for you instead. Jun 06 19:43:57 and, yes, the steps in the wiki should outline how to disable inetd. And the moment you do that, you will lose the ability to start the telnet server again. Jun 06 19:49:27 ah, mwester, i presume you mean tar ;) Jun 06 19:52:14 i run SSH Jun 06 19:55:48 Mwester, ive just got an error extracting it Jun 06 19:55:49 ar: No such file or directory Jun 06 19:55:49 gzip: Short read Jun 06 19:55:49 tar: Child returned status 1 Jun 06 19:55:49 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors Jun 06 19:57:21 using a script... but i presume thats just it being ar not tar Jun 06 19:57:41 can anybody give me a hint of xinetd, im trying to conf enhanced-ctorrent Jun 06 19:58:04 at the moment i can not seed Jun 06 20:00:10 reedy_boy: looks like nslu2 rejects the standard user/password root/unSLUng when using telnet Jun 06 20:01:17 hmm Jun 06 20:01:39 its a while since i've done it... doesnt it ask for a password in unslung 6.8 during install Jun 06 20:01:39 ? Jun 06 20:01:50 oh, you havent got that far - duh Jun 06 20:02:22 yeah, I just updated the firmware and enabled telnet Jun 06 20:02:37 I'm trying to telnet in, but get "login incorrect" Jun 06 20:03:55 uNSLUng Jun 06 20:04:03 Did you flash with no drives attached? Jun 06 20:04:10 yes Jun 06 20:04:25 ohhh Jun 06 20:04:34 I never get it right with the capitalisation Jun 06 20:04:36 that work? Jun 06 20:04:53 I tried the uNSLUng password instead of unSLUng at it worked Jun 06 20:04:55 I'm in!!! Jun 06 20:04:58 heh Jun 06 20:05:01 my fault Jun 06 20:05:36 actually, I did a search and somebody else had the exact same password listed on their site... so I assumed it wsa good to go...lol Jun 06 20:05:49 lol Jun 06 20:05:57 Now I need to prepare the flash disk and unslung it Jun 06 20:06:01 yeahg Jun 06 20:06:02 plug it in Jun 06 20:06:06 let the slug format it Jun 06 20:06:17 You read the docs about which to unsling ot? Jun 06 20:06:31 I will use port 2, leave port 1 for flexibility Jun 06 20:06:56 yeah Jun 06 20:07:07 do I just hot plug it? does it automatically format the drive or do I have to issue commands? Jun 06 20:07:29 yeah, hot plug Jun 06 20:07:43 you will probably have to manually initate the format on the web interface Jun 06 20:09:21 ok, it is formatting. What format does it format to? Linux ext3? Jun 06 20:10:07 think so Jun 06 20:10:08 age Jun 06 20:10:09 aye Jun 06 20:10:37 once it is formatted, how do I initiate unslung process? Jun 06 20:11:24 its in the manual Jun 06 20:11:25 errm Jun 06 20:11:42 /sbin/unsling disk2 Jun 06 20:12:07 wow, it formatted the disk as Fat16/32.... Jun 06 20:13:18 I don't think that is the correct file format Jun 06 20:16:10 nope Jun 06 20:16:12 thats a bit weird Jun 06 20:17:07 I think I found some doc mentioning if I get Fat32, reboot and try again Jun 06 20:17:18 however, it is contradicting itself a little or I'm confused Jun 06 20:17:34 Yeah Jun 06 20:17:38 Was it FAT32 before? Jun 06 20:18:07 leesiulung: do you have the README file that came with the Unslung firmware image? Jun 06 20:18:13 mwester: yes Jun 06 20:18:33 Follow those instruction, do not refer to any other site that google might find! Jun 06 20:18:46 heh Jun 06 20:19:08 the README is augmented with *correct* information on the appropriate pages on the wiki, as users find problems and resolve them. Jun 06 20:19:24 if it doesnt format, put it in your pc, remove the partitions and stick it back on the nslu2 again and try reformatting Jun 06 20:19:35 Let's see if perhaps this is one of those known issues: what sort of disk drive do you have plugged in? Jun 06 20:20:23 It is a SanDisk 1GB flash drive Jun 06 20:20:37 Ah, ok then. Jun 06 20:20:38 Model: Cruzer Mini Jun 06 20:20:59 previously formatted with FAT 16 or 32 for use on Windows Jun 06 20:21:00 Have you read the wiki pages on Unslung, starting with http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/HomePage? Jun 06 20:21:13 yes, I read a lot of informatino there Jun 06 20:21:32 Good, then you've also read http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/WhichUSBPortforUnslung6 ? Jun 06 20:21:48
