Aug 12 07:24:37 if you use a serial cable from a phone you do not need an additional 5 v source Aug 12 07:25:15 for siemens just cut off the siemens side, add a connector and bingo Aug 12 07:25:30 works for both serial and usb data cables Aug 12 07:25:33 see wiki for details Aug 12 07:25:41 need to go, later Aug 12 07:25:52 eFfeM, okie i know that, but in my country, shipping from outside very difficult Aug 12 14:10:32 hello to the world ;-) Aug 12 16:10:05 anyone know if the openslug or debianslug 'boot' process is much different from that of the way unslung works? i.e. the thing on the internal flash that tells the load process to look to one of the disks for the operating system rather than internal? only my freecom usb hd is unslung, but never manages to boot from the harddisk 'in time' - and i wondered if trying openslug/debianslug would be any different in that regard. Aug 12 16:20:41 barnseenio: openslug boots the kernel from flash, but after turnup it can use the rootfs from disk Aug 12 16:21:02 also openslug has an option to add a delay before trying to read from the usb disk Aug 12 16:21:10 is this the same or different to unslung? Aug 12 16:21:18 aha, the delay sounds interesting Aug 12 16:21:25 no idea if something like this exist in unslung, perhaps ask in nslu2-linux Aug 12 16:21:36 mm no-one seems to know Aug 12 16:21:48 you appreciate my problem though, appears to be a 'timing' issue? Aug 12 16:23:12 are you using openslug? Aug 12 16:29:42 and have you got a url, or something to google on for how this 'delay' is performed Aug 12 16:43:00 barnseenio: was away for a while, i am indeed using openslug and the delay is specified when doing a 'turnup' Aug 12 16:45:56 you might also try to ask on the nslu2-linux mailing list Aug 12 16:46:48 doing a turnup Aug 12 16:47:19 ive tried the mailing list about my boot timing issue in unslung to no avail Aug 12 16:47:35 which is why i was going to either - try with a memstick, or try openslug Aug 12 16:48:05 although, i fit the novice profile! so not sure whether general openslug usage will be beyong me Aug 12 16:49:50 i suggest you ask in #nslu2-linux, not here. this is a dev channel for openslug and hence not appropriate for your question Aug 12 16:49:51 does the actual openslug install require much more than following the readme? Aug 12 16:50:06 i understand Aug 12 16:50:48 tbh, im more interested in trying out an openslug install Aug 12 16:56:30 are you using OpenSlug 3.10 eFfeM? Aug 12 16:56:55 no I am using the development head Aug 12 16:57:21 the openslug install is outlined in the wiki Aug 12 17:09:12 yes indeed i have read it Aug 12 18:56:20 rwhitby: saw you demoted madwifi-ng while I fixed it Aug 12 18:56:57 should I readd ? Aug 12 18:57:19 for me it builds now locally, cannot test as I do not have a madwifi card Aug 12 21:19:09 eFfeM-log: I have a madwifi card; what OS are you building it for, perhaps I can test it? Aug 12 23:23:15 eFfeM-log: madwifi failed to build on nudi Aug 12 23:24:47 eFfeM-log: oh, I see you fixed it at the same time that I removed it - feel free to put it back if I don't get to it first **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Aug 13 02:59:57 2006
