**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri Feb 23 02:59:57 2007 Feb 23 04:44:27 Hmm. Feb 23 04:44:56 Since the Debian/NSLU2 Etch RC1 installer is broken, how do I install Debian on my NSLU2? Feb 23 10:27:20 hi excuse me i posted last night but i get no answer ... maybe was to late .. i have a nas synology 106j. After download with amule some of the files are impossible to rename, move , delete or change attribute. can someone help me in fix this ? Feb 23 11:30:55 ok thanks i got the solution Feb 23 15:46:31 hi Feb 23 15:46:51 nslu2 is really a great project. Feb 23 15:47:24 but i have some questions for that i didnt find any answer on nslu2 page... Feb 23 15:47:45 i will write it down here, maybe some expert can help me (i hope) :) Feb 23 15:48:02 ask :) Feb 23 15:50:19 1. i tried a fat32 partition. but it was horrible slow. so i decided to use ext2 for the second drive i am talking about. but how do i mount a ext2 filesystem on nslu2? how do i add it to windows network? i know the confiuration places for samba, but how can i set these options persistent? i use unslung. Feb 23 15:51:08 2. when all config is done, i would like to remove this lhttpd for the unslung config page, but i also run apache. how can i do this? Feb 23 15:51:23 3. is debian the same in speed as unslung? Feb 23 15:52:17 4. mysql seems to be very very laggy, i already reduced the memory settings for it. php is quite fast, but it all the time waits for mysql. for example phpmyadmin is horrible slow. Feb 23 15:53:35 5. network does not seem to use my complete 54mbit, the nslu2 seems to be overloaded. is there a faster network driver? Feb 23 15:55:14 ffx: What OS are you running on it? Feb 23 15:55:23 unslung Feb 23 15:55:30 latest beta Feb 23 15:56:32 SlugOS with the open source ethernet driver is supposed to be considerably faster. I never booted my slug in Linksys/Unslung and went straight to OpenSlug/SlugOS. Feb 23 15:56:36 i mean maybe debian is the better choice becuse i could exactly compile everything for my needs... but would it be faster then? Feb 23 15:57:08 There's Optware and OE for building packages too. I'm nuts and am running Gentoo on one of my slugs. :) Feb 23 15:58:40 i have a problem with my nslu2.. it worked with openslug for over a year Feb 23 15:59:04 but suddendly it doesn't boot anymore when any usb device is connected to it Feb 23 15:59:11 just goes into an endless reboot cycle Feb 23 15:59:20 any idea what could be wrong or how to debug that? Feb 23 16:01:08 c0ffee: boot to flash, unmount your drive, fsck the filesystem, mount your drive, add an init script to dump the output of dmesg, ifconfig -a, df, and so on to a file, boot to disk, if works yell "Yay!" if not boot do flash, read file Feb 23 16:01:43 I've added a fsck command to my linuxrc file to check the disk's / filesystem Feb 23 16:02:15 the disk is ok Feb 23 16:02:22 any usb device is enough to keep it from booting Feb 23 16:02:29 like a scanner or something Feb 23 16:02:47 i already re-flashed it completely, reset sysconf area Feb 23 16:03:01 but this dmesg to a file might be a good hint, thx :) Feb 23 16:03:25 btw, it also crashes when i connect an usb device after it booted without one Feb 23 16:03:40 Powered or unpowered usb device? Feb 23 16:04:06 tried both Feb 23 16:04:34 You could always add a serial port so that you can attach a console. Feb 23 16:07:12 hum yes Feb 23 16:07:57 does this sound like a known problem anyway? Feb 23 16:08:04 or more like a hardware failure Feb 23 16:08:04 how do i mount a ext2 device on unslung persistently? Feb 23 16:08:15 or should i use ext3 Feb 23 16:09:42 ext3 is same as ext2 but it has journal Feb 23 16:12:07 where are the boot scripts located on unslung, the place where shares are mounted? if i change configs in /etc/ it seems to be overwritten after reboot... Feb 23 16:12:54 c0ffee: I have no idea. Feb 23 16:13:27 Does it behave the same on each USB port? Feb 23 16:16:57 ok ok i see my questions are too lame for you... Feb 23 16:17:22 only the last one: is fat32 as fast as ext3 on unslung? Feb 23 16:20:28 ffx: Not really but I know nothing about unslung. Feb 23 16:21:34 fat32 and ext3 are different beasts. I'd imagine that fat32 is slightly faster but I know that ext3 is more robust. Feb 23 16:58:15 c0ffee, boot without device attached, login, plug the drive in, and remove the flag file Feb 23 16:59:18 /.recovery it should be Feb 23 17:02:32 Trying to compile lighttpd on my nslu2 but I get: checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables Feb 23 17:02:36 Any ideas? Feb 23 19:33:55 whats with the /var/lock dir in openslug 3.10 ? why do i have to chmod it after every reboot ? Feb 24 00:06:51 I have debian nslu2 and I just rebooted it but now I can't connect. I hear the harddrive spinning but I can't ping or ssh into it. Feb 24 00:10:26 right now only the power and ethernet lights are on Feb 24 00:24:10 Is there a Debian NSLU2 image with the RC2 installer and the Ethernet microcode? Feb 24 00:24:17 Or perhaps an image of sarge? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Feb 24 02:59:58 2007
