**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Sep 19 02:59:57 2006 Sep 19 13:14:19 Debianslug => offical debian repository, OpenDebianSlug and OpenSlug => unoffical big endian port, right ? Sep 19 13:20:08 OpenDebianSlug is an unofficial debian be port, yes Sep 19 13:20:20 OpenSlug is just the base you use to bootstrap to debian Sep 19 13:23:03 Thanks. What is the best way to find the IP of a "lost and confused" slug running the openslug firmeware ? the disc is dead and i donīt know what settings are inside the flash... Sep 19 13:26:15 heh, I had that problem a couple of weeks ago Sep 19 13:26:23 I had to use nmap to find it Sep 19 13:27:06 eg. nmap -sP 192.168.1.0/24 Sep 19 13:27:12 pumpkin0, the 100% failsafe method is the serial port mod ;) Sep 19 13:28:13 what about restart from scratch and reflash using debianSlug ? Will that reset the IP ? Sep 19 13:29:38 pumpkin0, i'm not 100% sure about that. it *may* read the ip-address from the sysconf-area Sep 19 13:31:38 oh... OK, i will try first nmap. Sep 19 13:32:50 it'll reread from sysconf, so you'd still not find it Sep 19 13:36:29 pumpkin0, you could still use the ResetSysconf instructions from the nslu2-linux.org Wiki if you can't find it with nmap Sep 19 13:43:41 Thanks, but i go it back. Now i want to update the firmware to debianslug, using a linux PC. upslug2 ./configure says: configure: error: C preprocessor "/usr/bin/cpp-4.0" fails sanity check. upslug cvs checkout thinks: cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to cvs.sourceforge.net(66.35.250.207):2401 failed: No route to host. i already hate the whole idea ... Sep 19 13:44:26 upslug2 ist now hosted at svn.nslu2-linux.org IIRC Sep 19 13:45:10 http://svn.nslu2-linux.org/svnroot/upslug2/ Sep 19 13:46:00 svn co http://svn.nslu2-linux.org/svnroot/upslug2/ Sep 19 13:49:21 That checkout does not contain a "cinfigure" file and my make cannot find any targets. Sep 19 13:49:35 s/cinfigure/configure/ Sep 19 13:49:35 pumpkin0 meant: That checkout does not contain a "configure" file and my make cannot find any targets. Sep 19 13:51:36 http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/nslu/upslug2-11.tar.gz?download ? Sep 19 13:53:35 configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check Sep 19 13:54:23 NAiL, are the instructions on http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Main/UpSlug2 (concerning the build instructions and fetching the files from SF) up-to-date? Sep 19 13:55:22 or does this thing need a new gcc ? i only tried gcc 3.3 and 4.0 Sep 19 14:00:15 pumpkin0, i just tried CC=gcc-4.0 and CC=gcc-4.1 ./configure, both worked Sep 19 14:00:57 wait a sec, i reboot into another OS. Sep 19 14:10:52 ah, better. thanks. Sep 19 14:42:30 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/DebianSlug/Bootstrap susgests updating perl before even running turnup. Will that nor fill up the internal flash ? Sep 19 15:16:53 pumpkin0, not if you're in the chroot environment on the harddisk Sep 19 15:18:02 the comment about perl is way above the chroot-part... Sep 19 15:18:57 hmm... i didn't install perl while bootstrapping Sep 19 15:22:31 i still have to reboot ... Sep 19 15:55:32 what is faster for slug <-> linux file sharing ? NFS or Samba ? Sep 19 16:04:28 NFS is a bit faster. Sep 19 16:04:52 Both do a lot better on a properly clocked slug (266mhz) Sep 19 16:05:25 or a 533MHz loft :) Sep 19 16:06:02 Or a cryofreezed 8gh ghz dual core! Sep 19 16:06:06 ^gh **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Sep 20 02:59:56 2006
