Apr 22 11:57:04 <iwo> reading the unslung readme, it sounds like it is a good idea to unsling to a dedicated usb flash drive, does this sound sensible?
Apr 22 11:58:36 <iwo> problem is, i wont then be able to add any other peripheral (e.g. webcam, other cool usb device) because port 2 will be taken
Apr 22 11:59:16 <iwo> how do most people have their slug set up? one big hd with your data, and unsling to that same hd?
Apr 22 12:00:38 <iwo> seems like if I have a dedicated usb stick to unsling to (and install packages to etc) then I can have an NTFS or FAT32 hd (which can be removed and used with a pc)
Apr 22 12:19:13 <rwhitby> iwo: that's the idea, yes.
Apr 22 12:19:32 <rwhitby> you can use a usb hub to add whatever else you want.
Apr 22 12:44:54 <iwo> the slug is a damn cool device :) ...
Apr 22 12:45:22 <iwo> when it arrived at my office, three more people saw it and are now going to buy one!
Apr 22 12:46:36 <iwo> presumably, i'm unlikely to need more than a 512mb memory stick to unsling to (+some extra packages), correct?
Apr 22 12:47:15 <iwo> since the slug can only run basic apps, is 256 enough even?
Apr 22 12:48:03 <rwhitby> basic?
Apr 22 12:48:15 <rwhitby> have you seen the package feed list lately ;-)
Apr 22 12:48:20 <iwo> okay, small in terms of package size :)
Apr 22 12:48:34 <iwo> i mean, i won't be installing photoshop :)
Apr 22 12:48:58 <iwo> or ms office
Apr 22 12:51:01 <NAiL> 256 should be enough, if you don't install development stuff and such
Apr 22 12:51:15 <NAiL> ymmv though
Apr 22 12:56:10 <rwhitby> I'd put in 512, just to be safe.
Apr 22 17:08:44 <iwo> the nslu2 driver disc has a load of linux apps on it, anyone know why?
Apr 22 17:18:29 <NAiL> linux *apps*?
Apr 22 17:18:40 <NAiL> or just the sources for them?
Apr 22 17:19:13 <NAiL> (ie, they've put the GPL sources on the CD finally?)
Apr 22 17:25:30 <clars> iwo, do you mean in the "Modified Source" folder on the CD ?
Apr 22 17:28:24 <iwo> yeah.
Apr 22 17:28:54 <iwo> does this mean the software on the nslu2 is open source?
Apr 22 17:29:42 <NAiL> parts of it, yes
Apr 22 17:29:57 <NAiL> the NTFS module and the network modules are closed-source
Apr 22 17:30:11 <NAiL> and everything pertaining to the webinterface, IIRC
Apr 22 17:41:12 <tsowell> are kernel patches required for the nslu2, or can I just use the stock source?
Apr 22 17:46:44 <jacques> kernel patches are required
Apr 22 17:47:35 <jacques> we are getting as much as possible moved into mainstream, but it's not all there yet
Apr 22 17:48:45 <tsowell> are there patches beyond what linksys has done, and if so, where can I find them?  sorry, I'm having trouble finding this info on the wiki
Apr 22 17:50:41 <jacques> they are in cvs on sourceforge and in the openembedded tree
Apr 22 17:51:06 <tsowell> okay, great.  thanks
Apr 22 17:52:10 <jacques> np
Apr 23 01:13:44 <bofh> hello, anyone here?
Apr 23 01:14:43 <breed> nslu2-nubee: given debian-sda1.bin how do I extract files from it and rebuild it with new ones?
Apr 23 01:15:28 <breed> (A pointer do a web page with the right info would be perfect!)
Apr 23 01:15:50 <bofh> what exactly is /lib/libntpass.so.0
Apr 23 01:15:58 <bofh> And more specifically, can it be deleted?
Apr 23 01:26:00 <rwhitby> bofh: I believe it is to generate lanmanager passwords for samba
Apr 23 01:26:26 <rwhitby> breed: #debonaras would be a better place to ask
Apr 23 01:27:29 <breed> actually, I'm debian-sda1.bin is just an example. I'm wondering how the firmware files are generated in general.
Apr 23 01:28:09 <rwhitby> slugtool
Apr 23 01:28:38 <breed> excellent! thanx
Apr 23 01:28:57 <rwhitby> oh, sorry - I meant to say slugimage
Apr 23 01:29:12 <rwhitby> http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/nslu/slugimage/
Apr 23 01:29:44 <breed> what is the difference between the two?
Apr 23 01:30:18 <rwhitby> slugtool was the very old original tool.  Fully replaced by slugimage over a year ago
Apr 23 01:30:46 <breed> excellent. thanx for the help. exactly what I was looking for.
Apr 23 01:34:41 <breed> What is the filesystem usually used for the initrd. It doesn't look like a gzipped image.
Apr 23 01:40:45 <bofh> rwhitby: I figured it had something to do with LM/NTLM, only thing is, I removed samba via ipkg awhile ago, so why is it still there?
Apr 23 01:42:56 <rwhitby> dunno - what firmware are you running for a start?
Apr 23 01:44:57 <bofh> openslug, and it wasn't there to begin with, I just checked the /initrd
Apr 23 01:47:44 <rwhitby> probably a package that samba depends on and got loaded
Apr 23 01:51:31 * bofh queries
Apr 23 01:52:34 <bofh> Nope, not in the list
Apr 23 01:52:40 <bofh> I'll just delete it
Apr 23 01:53:06 <bofh> Thing is, I'm really paranoid as my slug has over 200 days uptime and is a stratum-2 ntp serv
Apr 23 03:10:44 <rwhitby> Hmm - I need zmodem on the wl500g optware so I can load a new image onto my nas100d ...
Apr 23 03:15:50 <rwhitby> Time to port lrzsz to optware
Apr 23 03:18:36 <CIA-4> 03bzhou * 10unslung/make/cherokee.mk: upstream upgrade to 0.5.3
Apr 23 03:26:32 <CIA-4> 03rwhitby * 10unslung/Makefile: Added lrzsz.
Apr 23 03:26:42 <CIA-4> 03rwhitby * 10unslung/make/lrzsz.mk: Initial version.
Apr 23 03:26:53 <rwhitby> let's see what it builds on ...
Apr 23 05:23:23 <rwhitby> sweet - it seems to work
Apr 23 05:23:43 <rwhitby> (can use minicom and lrzsz to upload via ymodem to nas100d redboot
Apr 23 05:27:03 <rwhitby> hmm - spoke too soon
Apr 23 05:54:45 <rwhitby> RedBoot> load -m ymodem
Apr 23 05:54:45 <rwhitby> Unrecognized image type: 0x85190520
Apr 23 05:54:52 <rwhitby> wonder if it's an endian thing.
Apr 23 05:55:23 <NAiL> load -r ?
Apr 23 05:57:40 <rwhitby> yeah, that was it
Apr 23 05:57:56 <rwhitby> had to change the paths in minicom to /opt/bin too
Apr 23 06:12:33 <rwhitby> nice to be able to reflash the lude wirelessly from the wl500gx
Apr 23 06:12:50 <rwhitby> NAiL: testing the lastest SlugOS on the nas100d
Apr 23 06:17:29 <CIA-4> 03rwhitby * 10unslung/make/lrzsz.mk: Cleaned up superfluous text.
Apr 23 06:20:20 <tsowell> is there a howto or something for compiling a kernel for the NSLU2?
Apr 23 06:51:11 <rwhitby> tsowell: kernel module, cvs repo, sf.net/projects/nslu
Apr 23 06:52:34 <tsowell> rwhitby: should the patches for 2.6.15 work fine?
Apr 23 06:52:49 <rwhitby> dunno, we're at 2.6.16
Apr 23 06:53:19 <tsowell> all right.  that might explain my troubles
Apr 23 07:13:21 <CIA-4> 03rwhitby * 10kernel/2.6.16/defconfig: Put the required modules back in the kernel.
Apr 23 08:45:02 <CIA-4> 03rwhitby * 10kernel/2.6.16/96-nas100d-leds.patch: Fixed the name of the disk led on the nas100d.
