Aug 28 03:52:23 grmartin change in u-boot the bootargs to use S Aug 28 16:58:04 Good Morning, does anyone know where I can find instruction on backing up and restoring a plugpc? Aug 28 17:25:29 ralyon76: it's not different from any other system Aug 28 19:40:17 canning bus for devices... 0 USB Device(s) found Aug 28 19:40:17 scanning bus for storage devices... 27464322993094656 Storage Device(s) found Aug 28 19:40:19 :D Aug 28 19:43:08 how do you do that, I thought you could only have 127 on USB :( Aug 28 19:43:12 you're cheating somehow! Aug 28 21:21:26 Md: any other system I can boot up to a cd or usb to back up the disk, I'm having difficulty finding a way to do this. My goal to to back up the unit itself as in an image of the flash that can then be restored back to the flash of a non working or different system. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you were referring to just a software backup? Aug 28 21:24:05 Personally I am setting up my plug to boot from USB. I'll have one USB flashkey for the kernel and OS. I can remove this periodically and image it onto my linux PC Aug 28 21:24:56 ralyon76: if you backup the kernel too then as long as you have a working u-boot you can boot from a USB device Aug 28 21:25:10 I mean the kernel partition, you need to have a copy of it in a file somewhere Aug 28 21:25:32 if you know what you are doing, all information needed is on the wiki Aug 28 21:31:40 I find some useful info here and some there, but I end up running into problems putting it together Aug 28 21:32:30 there are specific instructions for booting from USB, it's all you need Aug 28 21:32:38 and I need to replace the uImage because I needed to compile a driver into the kernel Aug 29 01:55:36 Anybody alive in here? I have a mostly off-topic problem I need help with. :-) Aug 29 02:08:47 SDuensin: hi Aug 29 02:09:05 Hey tinker-f595! Aug 29 02:09:17 so what is up? Aug 29 02:09:21 I'm trying to get my plug on the net here in a back-asswards way. Aug 29 02:09:23 ... Aug 29 02:09:36 why not ass forward ;) Aug 29 02:10:04 The plug is 10.0.0.2, connected to a PC at 10.0.0.1. The PC is also 192.168.0.x and gets to the internet via 192.168.0.1. How can I get the plug to the internet? Aug 29 02:15:29 * SDuensin imagines tinker-f595 abusing Google at the moment. Aug 29 02:16:13 no I was in a busy blog Aug 29 02:16:23 :-) Aug 29 02:16:28 why not use the same segment for all? Aug 29 02:17:20 Two reasons: 1) To hide the plug from everyone but the one machine, 2) It's faster using a second NIC because my LAN sucks. :-) Aug 29 02:20:26 SDuensin: a firewall will hide it Aug 29 02:20:42 so improve your lan and make it blow Aug 29 02:20:49 :-D Aug 29 02:20:58 I will, as soon as I have $$$ to replace my old switches. Aug 29 02:21:26 I had to go and buy a switch the other week cause I have purchased to many gadgets Aug 29 02:21:44 netgear switches are cheap Aug 29 02:21:51 and have nice metal cases Aug 29 02:22:00 the pro series Aug 29 02:22:03 Cheap until you have like 48 ports in your house. :-P **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Aug 29 02:59:56 2009
