**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Feb 26 10:59:56 2006 Feb 26 12:37:16 Hi everybody Feb 26 12:37:25 morning Feb 26 12:37:32 little question about crosscompil Feb 26 12:38:15 when I use my crosscompil tools like this : make modules ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/src/synology/build/gcc-3.4.4-glibc-2.2.5/armv5b-softfloat-linux/bin/armv5b-softfloat-linux- Feb 26 12:39:11 there is no kernel_version for my modules Feb 26 12:39:37 dwery-away: ping? Feb 26 12:40:20 but with same sources, same .config, when I do not use crosscompil tools, I have kernel_version for my modules Feb 26 12:40:34 that's odd Feb 26 12:40:45 what may be wrong with my crosscompil tools ? Feb 26 12:48:05 i am into redboot on a slug that was successfully unslung and boots fine. i just can't remember its ip address. will doing ip_address -l 192.168.1.77 do what i need to be able to access normal telnet on normal boots? Feb 26 12:49:38 no Feb 26 12:49:44 that only sets the IP while in RedBoot Feb 26 12:49:52 ah, got it Feb 26 12:50:10 that's for when you need to reflash or something Feb 26 12:50:18 which i don't need to do now Feb 26 12:50:32 It might be possible to dump the sysconfig partition though... Feb 26 12:50:53 but that requires a bit more RedBoot knowledge than I've got :-P Feb 26 12:51:30 ok :) Feb 26 12:51:39 you can try something like "fis list", see which partition is the sysconfig partition and use the offset with "dump -b 0x -l 1024" Feb 26 12:52:55 If I remember my RedBoot fu, that'll dump what you need Feb 26 12:54:00 tell me if it helps ;) Feb 26 12:54:26 fis list didn't work Feb 26 12:54:36 hmm Feb 26 12:54:39 it puts up the help Feb 26 12:54:39 two secs Feb 26 12:55:10 geojeff why don't you use a tool like nmap to find out the ip address? Feb 26 12:55:34 NAiL: pong Feb 26 12:55:35 i wondered if there was a tool like that :) Feb 26 12:55:41 geojeff: try dump -b 0x50040000 -l 1024 Feb 26 12:55:46 ok Feb 26 12:56:09 dwery-away: Do you have any idea on elwood42's problem? It's a DS101j where the modules won't insmod... Feb 26 12:56:24 DiskStation> insmod -f /volume1/test/nfsd.o Feb 26 12:56:24 Using /volume1/test/nfsd.o Feb 26 12:56:25 insmod: couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for Feb 26 12:56:38 different magic number/version.. Feb 26 12:56:40 There's no "kernel_version=" in the module at all... Feb 26 12:56:56 (with or without modversions) Feb 26 12:57:04 module compiled without versioning support.. can be inserted using the force parameter Feb 26 12:57:24 but I compile with versionning support :( Feb 26 12:57:34 you notice the lines I pasted above? Especially the "-f"? ;) Feb 26 12:57:43 So it *should* work this way Feb 26 12:58:26 uh Feb 26 12:58:36 * elwood42 heard baby's crying Feb 26 12:58:40 interestin Feb 26 12:58:41 * elwood42 'll be back Feb 26 12:59:00 dwery-away: Exactly. Just wondered if you had seen it before. Feb 26 12:59:04 nope Feb 26 12:59:50 geojeff: I *think* it's human-readable, so you should be able to see the IP Feb 26 13:00:03 But I've never tried doing it manually myself :-P Feb 26 13:02:05 yeah, there is human readable part. it is at 192.168.1.77, and i've been chasing my tail :) Feb 26 13:02:12 *rofl* Feb 26 13:02:16 woof Feb 26 13:02:30 dwery-away: btw, I've just compiled -git9. Still works on ds101 and slug :-) Feb 26 13:02:42 good ;) Feb 26 13:03:24 03orepvik * 10kernel/2.6.16/KERNEL: update to -git9 Feb 26 13:08:46 If I use insmod from ipkg modutil, I have : Feb 26 13:08:56 DiskStation> /opt/sbin/insmod -f /volume1/mp3/nfsd.o Feb 26 13:09:00 /volume1/mp3/nfsd.o: ELF file /volume1/mp3/nfsd.o not for this architecture Feb 26 13:11:30 goolge says that's because I use depmod for i386 arch, what I need to do if I want to use arm depmod ? Feb 26 13:11:53 no, it's not Feb 26 13:12:00 :) Feb 26 13:12:09 I read that part yesterday, but it's not the same problem Feb 26 13:17:17 is there any documentation on how to build kernel module for nslu2 ? Feb 26 13:17:47 I don't want to have : use cvs and type make all Feb 26 13:18:00 something explained Feb 26 13:18:15 please :'( Feb 26 13:18:24 take a look on the wiki, it might be explained there Feb 26 13:18:43 I'm inexperienced at module crosscompiling Feb 26 13:21:37 thank's for all NAiL, I'll search again and again Feb 26 13:23:26 elwood42_aw: btw, you might have luck using the nslu2 kernel modules Feb 26 13:23:42 Dunno why I didn't think of that Feb 26 13:47:17 well hooray, my two slugs are at .77 and .78 Feb 26 13:51:23 one thing i am interested in with slug dev is audio, for recording animal sounds in biology (http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/FrogLoggingSlug). I am basically back at square one from last fall, and need to see what has happened in the meantime regarding new OSes on the slug, specifically regarding audio support Feb 26 13:52:18 i had discussions with several people here about getting libao working, i think with openslug, but that's as far as i got Feb 26 13:59:14 well, libao is up to 0.8.6 Feb 26 13:59:56 as a package in unslung? Feb 26 14:00:01 openslug Feb 26 14:00:08 cool Feb 26 14:00:33 There's a new openslug release around the corner Feb 26 14:00:35 03repvik * r274 10/releases/slugos-3.6-beta/openembedded/packages/libao/ (libao-alsa_0.8.6.bb libao-plugin-alsa_0.8.6.bb): update libao Feb 26 14:01:22 great Feb 26 14:01:52 I'm not using audio on the slug yet Feb 26 14:01:55 dwery-away: ping? ;-) Feb 26 14:02:17 ah, it's still the olympics Feb 26 14:02:27 last day Feb 26 14:03:46 I'm hoping to get audio on it in a while though Feb 26 14:03:58 but I'm going to use a rather non-standard soundcard :-P Feb 26 14:05:02 i have an external soundblaster Feb 26 14:06:10 does it work? Feb 26 14:06:30 i never even opened the box Feb 26 14:06:33 oh Feb 26 14:07:24 NAiL: pong Feb 26 14:07:58 there are some others listed on the froglogger page, griffin imic. maybe others to find. Feb 26 14:08:29 dwery-away: I was just wondering on audio. But there hasn't been any progress have there? ;) Feb 26 14:08:40 none :( Feb 26 14:09:16 Yeah, I remembered you said something about olympics after I pinged you Feb 26 14:09:23 so I didn't expect there to be any progress Feb 26 14:09:33 ok :) next wekk maybe Feb 26 14:09:45 hehe, no hurry Feb 26 14:46:08 hi is here anyone how uses Squirrelmail on a slug? Feb 26 14:48:41 NAiL: do you think you can merge the "upstreamable" parts of the ds101 patchset into one file? Feb 26 14:51:03 depends on what is upstreamable :) Feb 26 14:51:23 it think all of the ds101 except -buttons Feb 26 14:51:50 the CS macros can probably be made ixp4xx wide... Feb 26 14:52:13 I think I'll have to clean up the .h first Feb 26 14:52:19 you might want to separate them and upload that single patch to l-a-k before the others Feb 26 14:54:15 I'm not quite sure I know what you mean ;) Feb 26 14:56:41 don't worry ;) extract the macros, rename them and I'll show you :-D Feb 26 14:59:14 ok, I'll take a look at it in a little while. Writing a rather long 2-6-kernel-status-update-thingy-mail for the ds101-linux ml Feb 26 15:01:41 great Feb 26 15:02:12 when you're done pleasepost a link so that I can read the mail.. I'm not subscribed ;) Feb 26 15:05:34 I'll consult with you before sending the mail I think ;) Feb 26 15:09:08 but you're talking about those, right?: Feb 26 15:09:08 #define DS101_EXP_RECOVERY_T(x) (((x) & 15) << 16) Feb 26 15:09:10 #define DS101_EXP_HOLD_T(x) (((x) & 3) << 20) Feb 26 15:09:14 all those buggers Feb 26 15:10:04 Make all those IXP4XX_*? Feb 26 15:36:02 dwery-away: btw, got any idea what's causing my kernel-panic when writing to DoC? Feb 26 16:04:40 NAiL: is there something like System.map on DS101 ? Feb 26 16:04:53 I don't think there's one by default, no Feb 26 16:05:03 it's not strictly necessary Feb 26 16:05:35 so how modules resolve symbols ? Feb 26 16:06:11 depmod makes them, I think Feb 26 16:06:37 aaarg I'm running in a circle Feb 26 16:07:16 are you 100% sure that CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is defined? Feb 26 16:08:22 now yes, I make first unslung-kernel Feb 26 16:08:43 and modinfo works fine (normal it's unslung ;) Feb 26 16:09:35 after I copy my Makefile and my .config in unslung-kernel directory and I recompile (make mrproper, dep...) my modules Feb 26 16:09:53 so now modinfo's saying : Feb 26 16:10:29 filename: fs/nfsd/nfsd.o Feb 26 16:10:29 using_checksums:1 Feb 26 16:10:29 kernel_version: 2.4.22-uc0 Feb 26 16:10:29 license: GPL Feb 26 16:10:31 ... Feb 26 16:10:46 but it still doesn't work? Feb 26 16:10:53 no :( Feb 26 16:11:05 DiskStation> insmod -f /volume1/mp3/nfsd.o Feb 26 16:11:09 Using /volume1/mp3/nfsd.o Feb 26 16:11:13 insmod: unresolved symbol unlock_new_inode_R093af4c1 Feb 26 16:11:17 insmod: unresolved symbol iget4_locked_Rea39986b Feb 26 16:11:26 well, that's progress atleast Feb 26 16:11:47 I wonder if that's the lockd module (or whatever it's called) Feb 26 16:12:04 I don't have any 2.4-kernel sources handy so I can't check Feb 26 16:12:12 I think I have to make modules_install INSTALL_MODPATH=/something and use modprobe to insmod my new modules Feb 26 16:12:17 don't you need the lockd and sunrpc module too? Feb 26 16:12:29 yes I think I need Feb 26 16:12:58 day is not finish... I'll be back ! Feb 26 16:13:03 ;) Feb 26 16:13:07 or is this only true for the client nfs? Feb 26 16:13:39 I only try this one (the only I want to use - ipkg nfs-server is Ugly !) Feb 26 16:14:03 and slow ;) Feb 26 16:14:28 and "nolock" !!!! Feb 26 16:14:34 just Ugly* Feb 26 16:14:45 (and dangerous) Feb 26 16:15:11 I'll be back ! Feb 26 16:15:13 fire bad, fire bad ;-) Feb 26 16:15:22 elwood_aw: later :) Feb 26 17:41:26 jbot, test Feb 26 17:41:28 Oh, no! There's a test and I haven't studied! Feb 26 17:43:25 hi is here anyone how uses truecrypt on the slug? Feb 26 17:57:12 Maybe someone can look at the error i get compiling the Kernel module for truecrypt on the slug. I copied the compiled source code for the Kernel to slug from my cross development area: http://pastebin.ca/43231 Feb 26 17:57:43 family time, cooking, washing baby... no more time for my ds101j :( see you later Feb 26 17:57:53 bye Feb 26 17:59:00 can someone give me the binary of Unslung 6.x ? Feb 26 18:01:18 kami22: are you developing on the slug itself? Feb 26 18:01:34 yes but not the kernel Feb 26 18:02:57 if not, i would suggest, that you point to the right kernel sources, because /usr/src/linux-2.6.15 seems to be unconfigured. use ~/slug/openslug/tmp/work/ixp4xx-kernel/..... as source Feb 26 18:03:55 NAiL: yes to the macros, no to the idea ;) Feb 26 18:04:49 okay but there is not such a folder only thsi : /slug/openslug/tmp/work/nslu2-kernel-2.6.15-r3.0/linux-2.6.15 Feb 26 18:05:24 dwery-away: heh, ok Feb 26 18:06:04 dwery-away: I don't know where they should be though. Should I just let them be in the ds101.h, or should they be moved to somewhere more generic? Feb 26 18:06:05 i'm not sure about you, but i got a ~/slug/debianslug/tmp/work/ixp4xx-kernel-2.6.16-rc4-git5-r0.0 Feb 26 18:06:29 NAiL: i'd move them to some ixp4xx header file Feb 26 18:07:17 ok Feb 26 18:12:16 Dapu: the binaries for alpha releases are not available for download; they must be built from the sources (procedure outlined in the wiki). Binaries for the beta release should be forthcoming as soon as the latest alpha release (6.6) gets a few other testers to take a look and give it their "blessing"... Feb 26 18:17:07 mwester: thanks. I know that the alpha binaries are not available. That's why i am asking for them. I have almost no knowledge of linux. that's why i don't want to build from the sources. i don't even have a linux system running. can't you give me the 6.6? Feb 26 18:18:10 and what if it breaks your system? Dapu Feb 26 18:18:27 then i reflash old firmware? Feb 26 18:22:00 i don't want to use unslung 5.5 because then i cannot use my fat32 disk. which works great with the linksys r63 Feb 26 18:23:58 Neither 6.x nor 5.5 can unsling to a FAT32 disk - if you wish to keep a FAT32 disk, you will need to unsling to another disk, and use the FAT32 drive as a second drive -- both 5.5 and 6.x releases support the latter configuration. Feb 26 18:27:37 that's just what i want to do. i have another disk for unslinging. i want to keep the fat32 as a second drive. But the instructions for mounting the fat32 are really complicated. i was hoping that with 6.x it works out of the box. like it does with the r63 -- just plug it in and its mounted Feb 26 18:39:02 i installed cyrus-imapd but always when i am trying to do a saslpasswd2 i get this error : saslpasswd2: generic failure Feb 26 18:40:31 Dapu that should work fine with Unslung 6.x - keep an eye out on the lists and the website, the beta release for 6.x should be out shortly - it doesn't sound like setting up a development environment and building the alpha version is something you'd be wanting to do just yet! Feb 26 18:41:43 kami22: great error message!! :D "generic failure" (I'm afraid I have no experience with that, but it sure is a lousy message! Feb 26 18:44:23 mwester: right. but what is "shortly"? i don't want to wait :-) isn't the alpha version almost finished? it would make it so much easier to just flash the binary instead of trying to set up a development environment Feb 26 19:24:24 Anyone got any good resources on pcb design? Feb 26 19:55:35 dwery-away: ping? What'd you use to make the pcb? Feb 26 19:56:03 NAiL: eagle Feb 26 19:56:08 www.cadsoft.de Feb 26 19:56:13 or apt-get install eagle* Feb 26 19:56:17 yeah, costs a bit though, doesn't it? Feb 26 19:56:26 it's free for non commercial use Feb 26 19:59:22 ah, thanks Feb 26 19:59:27 * NAiL looks into it Feb 26 20:36:08 dwery-away: thanks, it looks great :-D Feb 26 20:40:18 NAiL: yw Feb 26 21:02:23 dwery-away: I'll probably be making some custom PCB's in a while. Maybe merge with the audio board thingamabob? Feb 26 21:02:36 mmm.. interesting. Feb 26 21:02:39 manufacturer? Feb 26 21:03:23 I was thinking of using whatever sparkfun offers. Looks simple enough for me :-P Feb 26 21:03:36 what pcb are you doing? Feb 26 21:04:06 A few different ones for the AVRs that I'm getting. Just playing around basically. Feb 26 21:04:24 It just looks a bit more "pro" than breadboard with dead bugs :-P Feb 26 21:05:53 Dunno how many yet. The guy at atmel said he'd bring me a "handful" of avrs Feb 26 21:06:14 He's got somewhat large hands :-P Feb 26 21:07:20 hmm... maybe I'll make a board to tack on to one of my displays.. that's a good idea :-D Feb 26 21:20:23 Two related questions - 1) Is there anyone around who could mail me a copy of the wl500g uClibc.so and 2) does anyone know how if at all ld-uClibc.so reports missing functions at dynamic link time (if you are running code linked against a different uClibc build) Feb 26 21:53:05 there's 8 unused pins on the avr... what the heck am I going to use that for? :-P Feb 26 22:00:22 03jp30 * 10unslung/Makefile: optware: promote cdrtools, py-nose Feb 26 22:13:05 dwery-away: eagle was grand. I've already got three (simple) designs done ;-) Feb 26 22:13:18 whoa! Feb 26 22:14:14 will sparkfun make pcbs with eagle's .brd files or gerbers? Feb 26 22:14:29 IIRC, they recommended eagle Feb 26 22:14:50 * NAiL checks Feb 26 22:15:25 they use gerber files Feb 26 22:15:51 ok.. you'll have to learn how to postprocess ;) quick tutorial on olimex.com Feb 26 22:18:03 heh, I won't be churning out the boards quite yet. Need to know that I get enough avrs, and check the pinouts on the second type of LCD I've got. I *think* I have the right pinouts, but it's been a while since I looked at it. Feb 26 22:19:31 I like eagle too. Feb 26 22:19:51 I'm just playing around a bit to learn right now. But it's looking very good though :-D Feb 26 22:19:53 the autorouting is slightly braindamaged; but it usually not too bad Feb 26 22:20:42 Hasn't done any wild routes yet. Ok, it's suboptimal, but it's not like I care on projects like these. Feb 26 22:21:20 NAiL: there are a few tricks.. first rout supply lines and define the ground plane Feb 26 22:21:27 then you can autorout on small projects Feb 26 22:21:33 on big one I had to do it by hand... Feb 26 22:21:37 ones* Feb 26 22:22:16 "ground plane"? ;) Feb 26 22:23:05 * dwery-away forgots NAiL is not EE :) Feb 26 22:23:10 hehe Feb 26 22:23:35 that big shiny green thing on the pcb connected to gnd :) Feb 26 22:23:47 yeah, I get that part Feb 26 22:23:55 but do I really need one? Feb 26 22:24:47 maybe.. it depends on the project.. if it's double side, is handy to have one as gnd traces are routed directly to the ground plane using vias Feb 26 22:25:01 Almost all but the simplest circuits (and slowest clocked cirucits) benefit from a ground plane of sorts... Feb 26 22:25:21 These are kinda ... simple circuits :) Feb 26 22:26:53 but ok, how do I define a gnd plane? Feb 26 22:27:41 when you are drawing the brd just define a rectangle called $gnd (iirc) on the bottom side of the pcb Feb 26 22:27:49 the autorouter will know what it is. Feb 26 22:28:43 Consider ohm's law - a thin ground trace has resistance, and can develop a voltage across it. Thus, for example, different chips on a board can have different ideas of what "zero volts" is -- a ground plane is like a very very thick ground trace, and minimizes that effect. Also keeps the ground trace from acting like a "tuned circuit" at high clocks, and radiating signals! Feb 26 22:29:36 wow.. that's an explanation! :) Feb 26 22:29:46 but it does make sense ;) Feb 26 22:29:50 (even to a non-EE) Feb 26 22:30:46 dwery-away: are you a EE, by chance? :) Feb 26 22:31:01 mwester: it happens :) Feb 26 22:33:12 hmm, how do I change the name? Feb 26 22:34:36 there's a rename command Feb 26 22:38:33 hmm, I'm not licking it right. I can rename all the other stuff, but not the rectangle Feb 26 22:40:28 just delete and create it again with the correct name ;) Feb 26 22:52:02 I can't say that I notice any difference though Feb 26 22:55:00 The gnd plane is still a rectangle Feb 26 22:58:57 mmm .. try loading some of the eagle examples too see it Feb 26 22:59:44 good idea Feb 26 23:07:44 I have a few days to learn before I make any definite plans anyway :-) Feb 26 23:31:49 Just in case anyone reads my earlier Q - I've now built a copy of uClibc that has got the functions in it that I needed that are in the wl500g version but not the version I was using. I can therefore confirm that the only indication ld-uClibc.so gives you when it can't find a needed function is that your program seg faults when it tries to call the function Feb 26 23:46:58 And with that discovery I finally get to mount an NFS share from my slug on my WAG354g router which means I've now got somewhere to put an optware install on it. Feb 27 00:17:12 hi. i installed debianslug on a nslu2 using the instructions on BuildDebianSlug. i manage to compile an external kernel module to an ipk by creating a .bb file. now the module has a vermagic of 2.6.15.2 while the kernel has 2.6.15, so i can't load the module without forcing. what went wrong? Feb 27 01:14:07 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/python.mk: fixed python for wl500g to pick up the right toolchain Feb 27 01:15:03 03bzhou * 10unslung/sources/python/setup.py.patch: disable tk right now Feb 27 01:25:59 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/ (13 files): tweak setup.cfg so python build_ext works for wl500g too Feb 27 01:27:24 any wl500g optware developer there can help me do some testing? Feb 27 01:44:45 03bzhou * 10unslung/Makefile: py* should work now for wl500g Feb 27 01:57:25 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/ (py-mercurial.mk py-rdiff-backup.mk py-roundup.mk py-scgi.mk): tweak setup.cfg so python build_ext works for wl500g too Feb 27 02:55:20 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/py-mysql.mk: tweak setup.cfg so python build_ext works for wl500g too Feb 27 02:56:18 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/py-mysql.mk: added python-stage Feb 27 03:45:17 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/py-mercurial.mk: in case of distutils.cfg or $HOME/.pydistutils.cfg Feb 27 03:59:40 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/py-rdiff-backup.mk: in case of distutils.cfg or $HOME/.pydistutils.cfg Feb 27 04:45:54 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/py-django.mk: django easily built Feb 27 05:51:57 03bzhou * 10unslung/ (Makefile make/py-psycopg2.mk): py-django py-paste py-pastescript py-psycopg2 ready for testing Feb 27 06:29:58 03bzhou * 10unslung/ (Makefile make/py-sqlalchemy.mk): py-sqlalchemy ready for testing Feb 27 06:30:49 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/ (4 files): fixed a typo in ipk name Feb 27 06:38:20 oleo, ping? Feb 27 06:52:47 eno-away:pong Feb 27 06:56:36 hi oleo, i think i fixed python for wl500g, would you mind testing the latest checked-in version? Feb 27 06:57:38 at least file builds/python_....-ipk/opt/bin/python2.4 shows the expected content Feb 27 06:59:10 yes, I just saw you've been busy on python. Will try it right away. Feb 27 07:01:29 if python works, i'd like to also test one python module with .so Feb 27 07:02:06 one good candidate is py-rdiff-backup Feb 27 07:07:27 python with libuclibc++ does not build. Python with stdlibc++ builds OK. Will try to run it to see the prompt. Feb 27 07:07:57 ok, that's good news as far as i'm concerned Feb 27 07:21:22 [root@oleo tmp]$ python Feb 27 07:21:22 Segmentation fault Feb 27 07:21:41 oh, no Feb 27 07:24:19 Yes, Can you help me with libuclibc++ error. When linking it stops with the following error: /local/leon/p/wl/slug/unslung/staging/opt/lib/libpython2.4.so: could not read symbols: Invalid operation . collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Feb 27 07:29:10 can you do a "/opt/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-uclibc/bin/mipsel-uclibc-nm -g staging/opt/lib/libpython2.4.so"? Feb 27 07:29:43 maybe this is the cause: ../Python-2.4.2/configure: line 3524: ./conftest: cannot execute binary file which does not occur when building with stdlibc++ Feb 27 07:33:32 here is nm output: http://pastebin.ca/43325 Feb 27 07:37:41 when it fails linking, what's the command line? Feb 27 07:40:41 sorry, i have to go to bed, send me email if you need me to do anything Feb 27 07:42:32 OK. Thanks. Will try to resolve this. Anyway. Build log it to big for pastebin :( Feb 27 10:10:57 anyone around? Feb 27 10:11:28 drif, there are several people around, best is just to ask your q Feb 27 10:11:36 snowbike, any further success with audio? Feb 27 10:11:40 what did that three rapid beeps in a row mean? Feb 27 10:12:00 I suddenly started to get those Feb 27 10:12:27 low on space? Feb 27 10:12:47 the first one is the normal beep, the dual beep means it cannot boot from hd (afaik) Feb 27 10:13:20 it's been up for weeks Feb 27 10:13:22 still is Feb 27 10:13:34 telnet into the slug, mount the disk, see if there is a .recovery on your disk, if so: rm .recovery and reboot Feb 27 10:13:43 and those beeps came after every 30seconds or so Feb 27 10:14:38 ah, ok, thought you got those beeps while booting. Feb 27 10:14:44 nope Feb 27 10:15:02 if they come regularly it could be cron related, never got these Feb 27 10:18:05 seems to be CheckDiskFull - what distracted me umounting the device didn't help right away - took couple of minutes until beeps stopped Feb 27 10:19:03 never had a disk full ... Feb 27 10:19:37 not system disk of course Feb 27 10:20:26 drif: check the FAQ - there's an entry for that. Feb 27 10:21:01 rwhitby: no probs anymore **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Feb 27 10:59:56 2006
