Sep 20 06:57:05 rwhitby, hi, do you have time and mood to continue thinking about my sid-kernel under etch on nslu2 problem? Sep 20 07:01:28 ka6sox: no, he never does. Sep 20 07:01:54 lyakh: yes, but a bit later tonight - say in 4 hours time. unless it's a quick one now. Sep 20 07:02:57 ok, in 4 hours then, if I don't solve it by then:-) I'd also try to post to debian-arm ML Sep 20 07:03:02 thanks Sep 20 07:05:56 the flash-kernel script didn't work? Sep 20 07:06:23 don't know, should I have tried it by hand? you asked if it was installed only Sep 20 07:06:45 but what bothers me more - I tried flashed them by hand - kernel and initrd in mtd3 and 4 Sep 20 07:06:50 and it didn't boot Sep 20 07:07:25 or should anything else have been modified, like kernel params in mtd5 or whatever? Sep 20 07:07:53 yes, you can run flash-kernel by hand and it should do the right thing with the currently symlinked files in /boot Sep 20 07:08:17 there is stuff that needs to be done to the files as they are flashed - you can just copy them directly into the mtd partitions. Sep 20 07:08:27 have a read of the flash-kernel script for details. Sep 20 07:08:44 s/can/cannot/? Sep 20 07:09:58 ahhm... yep, some 16-byte headers... Sep 20 07:16:08 YESSSS! Sep 20 07:16:14 rwhitby, many thanks! Sep 20 07:16:24 you saved me lots of hours Sep 20 07:17:20 so, now just install openvpn, some wireless cruft, firewall scripts, dnsmasq and should be ready-to-go Sep 20 07:20:40 yeah s/can/can't/ Sep 20 07:20:58 feel free to make a donation at www.nslu2-linux.org ;-) Sep 20 07:21:15 or debian if you prefer. Sep 20 07:21:26 :-) ok, I'll think about it Sep 20 07:25:48 lyakh: the donations pay for the servers that the wiki and scm repositories live on Sep 20 07:26:14 and did pay for the nslu2 that we sent tbm to do the debian installer port. we did the kernel patches that debian uses. Sep 20 07:27:23 you don't have to persuade me, I was payed from donations, which allowed me to equip my kuropro, which I got for free from buffalo Sep 20 07:30:28 nice :-) Sep 20 07:31:26 as I said, that's what I need nslu2 for - to free another kurobox to be able to freely bereak it:-) Sep 20 07:37:06 I want to put Gentoo on a Kuro. Sep 20 07:37:16 just for fun. Sep 20 07:37:26 ka6sox, is there a problem? Sep 20 07:37:42 I don't think so... Sep 20 07:38:00 I need to see if there is firmware for that. Sep 20 07:38:10 need to find the firmware chart again. Sep 20 07:38:27 there was one... don't know how recent / well maintained though Sep 20 07:38:33 but a few use it Sep 20 07:40:07 its OLD what I'm seeing Sep 20 07:40:15 2.4.17 kernels Sep 20 07:41:10 but that you can perfectly discuss on #linkstationwiki, you know:-) Sep 20 14:43:37 osas: Yes it should work with kamikaze on WRTSL54G Sep 20 14:43:48 thx Sep 20 14:44:00 I will buy a new one and play with it :) Sep 20 14:45:40 eno: I did some tests with castget on unslung and slugosbe, looks ok Sep 20 14:45:59 I'll add it to the Makefile as ready for testing Sep 20 14:48:31 osas: Not that it also runs on Asus routers like WL-500G Premium Sep 20 14:48:46 s/Not/Note/ Sep 20 14:48:46 oleo meant: osas: Note that it also runs on Asus routers like WL-500G Premium Sep 20 14:49:08 I think both of them are pretty much the same Sep 20 14:49:15 same amount of memory ... Sep 20 14:49:30 USB port Sep 20 14:50:03 is there a good web interface for management? Sep 20 14:50:33 last year I went with ddwrt b/c of the web interface (and the easy of setup) Sep 20 14:52:04 according to http://wiki.openwrt.org/TableOfHardware they are similar. X-Wrt web interface if fine for me. Sep 20 14:52:37 I see. thx Sep 20 14:55:20 fcarolo: thx Sep 20 15:01:25 03fcarolo * r6889 10optware/trunk/ (4 files in 3 dirs): castget: added Sep 20 16:36:26 03bzhou * r6890 10optware/trunk/Makefile: castget: promoted Sep 20 18:28:16 03bzhou * r6892 10optware/trunk/ (3 files in 2 dirs): multitail: promoted for openwrt-* after fix Sep 20 18:58:15 03bzhou * r6893 10optware/trunk/ (3 files in 2 dirs): psmisc: promoted on openwrt-brcm24 and wl500g after fix Sep 20 19:19:55 hi, is there any documentation how to install an own build kernel onto the nslu2 under debian?

Sep 20 19:35:52 ka6sox: if Debian/NSLU2 is little endian yes i think Sep 20 19:39:00 ka6sox: yes, confirmed little endian linux Sep 20 19:41:24 I think that you would need to mount the kernel partition and replace that (or dd the kernel to the partition) Sep 20 19:43:19 ka6sox: how do is see these devices, fdisk -l doesn't show anything Sep 20 19:45:35 you need mtd support Sep 20 19:45:39 in the kernel Sep 20 19:46:49 03bzhou * r6897 10optware/trunk/platforms/packages-openwrt-brcm24.mk: tshark: promoted on openwrt-brcm24, seems to build just fine Sep 20 19:47:54 ka6sox: under /dev/ are mtd* devices so udev seems to know them Sep 20 19:48:18 I can't remember what partition the kernel is in Sep 20 19:50:58 ka6sox: it seems as if neither mtd[1-5] nor mtdblock[0-5] are mountable Sep 20 19:51:38 they shouldn't be I suppose Sep 20 19:52:47 they should have the bootloader, kernel, and a limited rootfs that is probably cramfs or something like that. Sep 20 19:52:57 and an initrd. Sep 20 19:53:20 I'm trying to find the mtdblock layout for that firmware. Sep 20 19:54:32 do you have nslu-tools installed? Sep 20 19:54:45 rather nslu2-tools Sep 20 19:54:49 that may help here. Sep 20 19:56:54 ka6sox: ok i look into these Sep 20 19:57:04 also are you using these instructions: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Debian/BuildImage Sep 20 19:58:25 ka6sox: i thought these instructions where for cross compiling, or does slugimage work from within the installation? Sep 20 20:00:08 the build process is cross compiling afaict. Sep 20 20:00:48 if you had the block map for the D-I image then you could directly dd into the mtd. Sep 20 20:01:21 I must go now..bbiaw Sep 20 20:01:31 ka6sox: ok, thanks for your hints Sep 20 20:56:38 03bzhou * r6898 10optware/trunk/platforms/packages-openwrt-brcm24.mk: bluez-utils: promoted on openwrt-brcm24, builds fine Sep 20 21:25:07 03bzhou * r6899 10optware/trunk/ (3 files in 2 dirs): gnugo: promoted on openwrt-ixp4xx & openwrt-brcm24 after fix Sep 20 21:48:36 tstone: if you build your debian kernel using debian, then just dpkg -i install it and it will reflash your slug. Sep 20 21:49:31 look in the flash-kernel script in Debian to see what needs to be done to the resulting debian images before the get into the mtd partition Sep 20 22:01:20 thats what I was asking but he didn't want to reflash.

Sep 20 22:06:33 rwhitby: i had been looking in the kernel postinstall script, but this was not conclusive at the first look Sep 20 22:06:53 tstone: how you build the kernel is not the problem - you can build any appropriate kernel and initramfs using Debian tools or any other method (cross or native). but you do have to flash it properly to install it. Sep 20 22:07:27 the flash-kernel script is definitive, and works on a normal kernel and initramfs file. Sep 20 22:09:29 rwhitby: flash-kernel seems to be what i have been looking for, thanks :-) Sep 20 22:09:37 np Sep 20 22:10:03 rwhitby: thinking about it, shouldn't kexec also work to test new images? Sep 20 22:10:31 it should do, but we haven't confirmed that it all works yet. Sep 20 22:12:59 i have another question: is there more to the little and big endian stuff than -lets say- that big endian is little faster in tcp-networking and little endian is better for exchanging data with the x86 world?
