**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Nov 19 02:59:56 2006 Nov 19 18:38:39 anyone around? Nov 19 18:41:34 'ello Nov 19 18:42:45 howdy Nov 19 18:42:54 i have a question Nov 19 18:43:28 i compiled my own version of the openslug 3.10 beta kernel but i cant figure out how to put it onto the slug Nov 19 18:44:03 when i try reflash, it complains the image doesnt contain a kernel, but it is clearly being build properly Nov 19 18:46:23 are you using the longfilename.flashdisk.img file and upslug2? Nov 19 18:46:36 im not using upslug2 Nov 19 18:46:42 but i am using that file Nov 19 18:46:57 that's all i have experience with. Nov 19 18:47:09 what are you using, redboot directly with telnet hack? Nov 19 18:47:16 ssh Nov 19 18:47:25 my slug is already running 3.10 Nov 19 18:49:02 so you are ssh'ing and then running reflash? Nov 19 18:49:06 yep Nov 19 18:49:11 ah. Nov 19 18:49:15 never done that. Nov 19 18:49:33 it seems to be compiling fine Nov 19 18:49:40 is the image around 8M? Nov 19 18:49:44 yep Nov 19 18:49:52 but it doesnt want to reflash it Nov 19 18:50:35 dunno. that's something reflash is deciding then. i think you can use slugos-image (or somethign like that) to examine the .img file. Nov 19 18:50:52 ok Nov 19 18:51:09 can you not try upslug2? no linux box? Nov 19 18:51:24 i do have one but i havent tried Nov 19 18:51:29 im running ubuntu in vmware Nov 19 18:51:52 i don't think upslug2 will work from within vmware. it's a NAT thing. Nov 19 18:52:09 what do you mean? Nov 19 18:52:46 cause vmware doesnt use NAT, it actually virtualizes your network card, my comp then gets assigned 2 ip addresses from my router Nov 19 18:52:53 upslug2 uses raw ethernet protocols to communicate with the slug. that won't burble through vmware to the windows networking stack. Nov 19 18:53:04 ah i see Nov 19 18:53:14 hopefully i've saved you the hours i wasted on this (-; Nov 19 18:53:30 so you have tried it before?? Nov 19 18:54:31 well then i dont have access to upslug 2 Nov 19 18:55:36 im looking at it online Nov 19 18:55:38 well, with gentoo and vmware, but it's the same problem. Nov 19 18:55:42 it wont even work through a router Nov 19 18:55:58 that's right - it's an ethernet protocol different from IP. Nov 19 18:56:27 thats kinda lame Nov 19 18:56:52 so like u would have to connect ur comp straight to the slug? Nov 19 18:57:00 BUT Nov 19 18:57:17 even if vmware doesnt work, what if i booted my system off of the ubuntu live cd Nov 19 18:57:31 then it would have direct access to my nic card Nov 19 18:57:37 sure. Nov 19 18:58:10 so i need to connect the slug straight to my computer? Nov 19 18:59:02 you can use a hub/switch, of course. Nov 19 18:59:15 yeah Nov 19 18:59:19 which i do not have Nov 19 18:59:27 so straight it is Nov 19 18:59:41 any other insights you can offer about using upslug? Nov 19 18:59:46 before i reboot with ubuntu Nov 19 19:02:35 and also, when u installed vmware, did you choose the NAT or the nic virtualization option Nov 19 19:12:19 don't remember. Nov 20 02:53:47 <_chris_> does OpenSlug support NFS v3? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Nov 20 02:59:59 2006
