**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Jul 08 02:59:57 2008 Jul 08 14:22:49 now i have dnsmasq running dhcp and dns forwarding Jul 08 14:23:27 i also turned on tftp for pxebooting machines needing rescue or a fresh install Jul 08 14:23:35 and that worked, too Jul 08 14:23:39 nice Jul 08 17:52:27 Hi All Jul 08 17:52:43 whats the rated speed of the usb ports in the nslu2? Jul 08 17:53:28 usb2 has a theoretical maximum of 480megabits/s Jul 08 17:54:04 yea, I know, however I've seen some usb2.0 devices say they're 2.0 yet have a cap at 12Mb/s Jul 08 17:54:22 I just want to make sure the nslu2 has semi-true usb2.0 ports Jul 08 17:54:38 Yeah Jul 08 17:54:52 The limiting factor in NSLU2 is the CPU Jul 08 17:55:03 I got an interesting idea for the nslu2 Jul 08 17:55:36 basically to create a usb over wifi system Jul 08 17:55:50 so I can access usb peripherals that are not near my machine Jul 08 17:58:08 with usb disks I think the CPU maxes out at about 3.5 - 4.0 megabytes/second when pushing data over network Jul 08 17:58:44 hmm, thats not too bad Jul 08 21:25:59 why does slugos have a duplicated mount, /dev/sdb2 / and /dev/sdb2 /dev/.static/dev ? Jul 08 21:26:24 even without drives, it had duplicated mount points for /dev/mtdblock4 Jul 08 21:29:03 It's part of a mechanism that creates /dev pre-populated, and lets udev populate it the rest of the way without actually modifying anything on the filesystem. Jul 08 21:31:25 mwester: so it works, right ;) ? Jul 08 21:32:06 nicely. Jul 08 21:32:26 It's what makes it practical to run udev on a device that runs on internal flash with jffs2 Jul 08 21:34:43 amazing Jul 08 21:34:57 i really like the engineering design that goes into small systems Jul 08 21:36:24 i was disappointed that i couldn't fit dnsmasq and a pxelinux/linux boot image into the flash Jul 08 21:37:19 that would have given me a way to come back from a disaster that craps out all the disks with linux rescue/install images Jul 08 21:38:23 nevertheless, i'm really happy running the dnsmasq/pxelinux rescue system on the disk Jul 08 21:51:38 hi Jul 08 21:52:32 how do i label my swap partition? i tried mkswap but it seems like busybox doesnt spport labeling Jul 08 21:54:23 krim_: install util-linux or util-linux-ng Jul 08 21:55:21 thank you eno Jul 08 22:38:57 will this crontabjob work: [5 23 * * * root killall relay-nc800]Imean can I use "killall" in crontab tol kill the process "nc800"? Jul 09 00:27:16 what are all of the task-*** packages about? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Jul 09 02:59:56 2008
