Dec 11 03:15:07 <scotth> hi, I've unsluged my nslu2 and I'm trying to get ipkg up and running, unfortunately I get no route to host for the package archive on my slug only, on my main system I can download the files, any ideas on whats going on or how to diagnose?
Dec 11 03:16:22 <scotth> like how do I see the route on the slug, ip isn't there
Dec 11 03:18:18 <scotth> oh, nm, found the route command, i forgot about it
Dec 11 05:50:13 <xcasex> ehrm, can i use the ångstrom feeds with the nslu2 ?
Dec 11 12:14:20 <mwester-road> xcasex: Not unless you install angstrom :)
Dec 11 17:26:11 <kaska1> any1 here?
Dec 11 17:54:05 <jprind> kaska1, there are 42 people here
Dec 11 18:16:52 <joshin> how many slugs?
Dec 11 18:22:47 <jprind> joshin, wha?
Dec 11 18:23:32 <joshin> The nslu2 is often called a slug.  nSLUg
Dec 11 18:24:21 <jprind> joshin, yeah, i'm well aware of that. your question just seemed odd. and undirected
Dec 11 18:25:20 <joshin> If there are 42 people, how many slugs here?    I know that mine is considering that it is running irssi so that I may continue to confound and confuse you.  ;)
Dec 11 18:27:25 <jprind> joshin, ah, be my guest :) but i have no asnwer to your question. i'm at work, so mine isn't here
Dec 11 18:39:18 * DrJ would say most everyone here has at least one
Dec 11 18:40:16 <eno> i'm connecting to my slugs at home from work and irssi from my home slug
Dec 11 18:40:36 <DrJ> :)
Dec 11 18:48:12 <smultron> i need help manually installing debian since the 4.0r1 is broken.... anyone want to help me? :)
Dec 11 18:50:44 <smultron> i tried these instructions, but it didn't work... http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/unpack.html
Dec 11 18:52:21 <jprind> smultron, define "didn't work"
Dec 11 18:52:36 <smultron> slug never booted to debian
Dec 11 18:52:52 <smultron> the status/ready light stayed yellow
Dec 11 21:59:36 <PPmarcel> 18:46 < eno> i'm connecting to my slugs at home from work and irssi from my home slug
Dec 11 21:59:40 <PPmarcel> eno: welcome :)
Dec 11 22:00:20 <PPmarcel> smultron: when you launch debian installer, press "back" at the first screen, and choose expert installation
Dec 11 22:00:46 <smultron> PPmarcel: debian installer is currently broken, isn't it?
Dec 11 22:00:55 <PPmarcel> it will asks you which kernel to use (the kernel location is the reason why the installer is "blocken")
Dec 11 22:01:05 <PPmarcel> and you choose nslu2 one
Dec 11 22:01:09 <PPmarcel> smultron: not really
Dec 11 22:01:45 <smultron> i'm in the middle of the manual install... i'll try that if this doesn't work
Dec 11 22:01:59 <PPmarcel> when i installed debian first time, i tryed 3 times, but i have been able to install it, even with this "break"
Dec 11 22:02:08 <PPmarcel> ok
Dec 11 22:02:15 <PPmarcel> let's hope ;)
Dec 11 22:02:42 <PPmarcel> if i find the newsletter which was talking about this trick, i'll put it in the wiki
Dec 11 22:07:05 <PPmarcel> smultron: http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-ARM-installer-images-for-etch-%284.0%29-currently-broken-p12438636.html
Dec 11 22:07:08 <PPmarcel> i found it ;)
Dec 11 22:07:14 <PPmarcel> i'll post it in the wiki
Dec 11 22:07:45 <smultron> ok
Dec 11 22:07:59 <smultron> i'm gonna go plug in the hard drive to the slug
Dec 11 22:08:00 <smultron> brb
Dec 11 22:08:22 <PPmarcel> if it works, tell me, i need confirmation before doing a mistake
Dec 11 22:13:14 <PPmarcel> smultron: i said something wrong, looka t the post that i gived you!
Dec 11 22:24:45 <smultron> i think it's still trying to boot
Dec 11 22:25:30 <smultron> what's a good way to probe for the IP address of the slug?
Dec 11 22:29:14 <smultron> what does it mean when the status light is flashing green/yellow?
