Sep 04 03:25:00 <EnterUserName> sigh i cant get my gentoo slug to work
Sep 04 03:25:01 <EnterUserName> it crashes!
Sep 04 04:58:22 <EnterUserName> HI all
Sep 04 04:58:29 <EnterUserName> where can i find how to compile the kernel from scratch
Sep 04 04:58:32 <EnterUserName> with nslu2?
Sep 04 05:05:03 <EnterUserName> found it never mind :)
Sep 04 18:39:22 <Reedy_Boy> Anyone know what the licensing is on the Images of the NSLU2-Linux gallery?
Sep 04 18:43:53 <Reedy_Boy> As i could take a picture myself... Just would be easier to use someone elses one if i was allowed, otherwise i'd spend ages faffing trying to get a reasonable picture
Sep 04 20:49:44 <lasseo> Hi, is this the correct forum for Debian slug questions? The #debian-arm channel seams to be closed.
Sep 04 20:51:10 <lasseo> I am trying to reinstall my slug with debian. It is running a very early installation of debian. My plan is to reinstall it with the latest 4.0
Sep 04 20:51:42 <Reedy_Boy> The installer is broke AFAIK
Sep 04 20:51:47 <Reedy_Boy> Just use apt-get update
Sep 04 20:51:54 <Reedy_Boy> then apt-get dist_upgrade to upgrade the kernel
Sep 04 20:52:30 <lasseo> will I end up with the same system?
Sep 04 20:52:53 <Reedy_Boy> Yeah, just with the up to date kernel
Sep 04 20:56:33 <lasseo> Hmm... maybe I will try that.. still would be nice to have a clean installation. According to the manuall installation instructions, I need to extract the NPE-B microcode from the unofficial debian installer image with "slugimage",  However, I am not able to get the NPE-B mircocode, the last step to get the "binary" results in a odd directory instead of real files.
Sep 04 20:56:58 <lasseo> I am trying to do the extraction on my slug.
Sep 04 20:57:26 <Reedy_Boy> Yeah, not really for the novice.
Sep 04 20:57:58 <lasseo> any reason of why the instructions on the http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Debian/HomePage fails... is this beause I am trying to do this on the slug?
Sep 04 20:59:04 <Reedy_Boy> AFAIK, you shouldnt need to do any of that
Sep 04 21:00:15 <lasseo> as far as I understand from http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/unpack.html ( manuall installation instructions ), I need to do this.
Sep 04 21:00:29 <Reedy_Boy> Depends what your trying to achieve
Sep 04 21:01:21 <lasseo> a clean install, from scratch.
Sep 04 21:05:31 <lasseo> I am getting a fealing that I need to reflash the firmware and manaually get the NPE-B code when doing upgrade/reinstallation from a old debian version. But I could be wrong.
Sep 04 21:05:55 <lasseo> (when reading the nslu2-debian homepage)
Sep 04 21:08:52 <lasseo> Anyone that knows when the Debian installer 4.0r2 can be expected?
Sep 04 21:09:31 <Reedy_Boy> When r2 comes out i suspect..
Sep 04 21:09:46 <Reedy_Boy> Can you not download the r0 from anywhere?
Sep 04 21:10:34 <lasseo> isn't it broken?
Sep 04 21:10:51 <Reedy_Boy> Ah, sorry
Sep 04 21:10:55 <Reedy_Boy> I havent really read up on it
Sep 04 21:11:02 <Reedy_Boy> Its broken due to the kernel it gets...
Sep 04 21:13:08 <lasseo> still really strange the I am not able to extract the binaries from the image when following the instruction. :-(
Sep 04 21:17:59 <Reedy_Boy> Post on the debian-arm mailing list
Sep 04 21:21:43 <lasseo> seams to be closed. cant find where it has gone.
Sep 04 21:22:24 <lasseo> Will do.
Sep 04 21:22:32 <lasseo> thanks
