I'm planning to install debian on my nslu2. I'm following this guide: http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/install.html and i have some questions. First, after using upslug2 the guide says the slug will reboot and then i have to connect my usb drive. How long do i have to do this, and what do i do if i was too slow? May 12 16:20:08 Pinky__1, don't worry if you think you slow May 12 16:20:24 just restart the slug then with usb attached May 12 16:21:51 great :) 2nd question, it mentions the installer sometimes running out of memory while partitioning. Should i format the drive before the installation, and in that case what partitions do i need? the drive is a 300gb May 12 16:23:17 700mb+ is good and _must_ have a swap at least 256MB May 12 16:24:10 should i format it manually before the installation, or is it safe to choose automatic? May 12 16:24:21 fine to do it during the isntallation May 12 16:24:31 the installer will guide the partitioning May 12 16:24:33 thx :) May 12 16:24:41 and you can get away with plugging it in during the actual installer too May 12 16:25:10 okies :) than i'll go ahead, and start screaming for help here when everything crashes ;) May 12 16:25:21 thank's for the help May 12 16:25:29 np May 12 16:30:49 oh, and Pinky__1, the #nslu2-general channel is more appropriate for these questions May 12 16:31:17 oh, sorry :) i saw general and linux, and thought installing debian must be linux May 12 16:31:36 what do you talk about in here then? May 12 16:32:28 its more development and difficult stuff May 12 16:36:05 ah, thanks anyway May 12 19:18:29 03engy * r8298 10optware/trunk/ (2 files in 2 dirs): libuclibc++: change 'swap' visibility in __base_associative class May 12 19:24:35 03engy * r8299 10optware/trunk/ (4 files in 2 dirs): nmap: 4.53 -> 4.62 May 12 22:36:40 03bzhou * r8300 10optware/trunk/make/cvs.mk: cvs: 1.11.22 -> 1.11.23 May 12 22:40:54 03bzhou * r8301 10optware/trunk/make/sudo.mk: sudo: 1.6.9p15 -> 1.6.9p16 May 12 22:43:52 03bzhou * r8302 10optware/trunk/make/newsbeuter.mk: newsbeuter: 0.9 -> 0.9.1 May 12 23:18:02 03bzhou * r8303 10optware/trunk/make/py-nose.mk: py-nose: 0.10.1 -> 0.10.2 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue May 13 02:59:56 2008
