| 07:12.57 | lunra | well, for anyone wondering, routers don't send packets along wires that they don't need to be on |
| 07:13.32 | lunra | So, you only get packets addressed to your ethernet address |

| 12:23.28 | popolon | do you mean you fill the card by dd ? |

| 12:25.30 | lunra | do you mean me? I mean for flashing |
| 12:25.41 | popolon | in french we say 'graver' => meaning engraving for cd |
| 12:25.43 | popolon | like disks |
| 12:25.44 | lunra | then again, 'flashing' doesn't make much sense either, only when you know how the cells are erased |
| 12:25.55 | lunra | That makes more sense, popolon |
| 12:26.07 | lunra | I think the term used is 'brushing' |
| 12:26.29 | lunra | don't quote me on that, may have just been a bad translation |
| 12:26.42 | popolon | oh, traditionnal engraving printing in chinese, is called yingshua |
| 12:26.49 | popolon | meaning brushing picture |
| 12:27.03 | lunra | Interesting |
| 12:27.21 | popolon | because in chinises engraving method, the picture is duplicated by brushing the paper |
| 12:27.35 | popolon | as, as far I know, they use chinese (indian for english) ink |
| 12:27.53 | popolon | that's water diluated ink |
| 12:28.05 | popolon | in europe we use oil diluated ink for printing |

| 14:16.04 | B3RN0UT | i would like to use this yes, that's what i want to do |
| 14:16.54 | lunra | Have you got a Linux livecd or something that you can run on your regular computer? |
| 14:17.29 | lunra | Using Linux to do the disk copy -greatly- reduces possibility of problems, from what I've seen |
| 14:18.08 | B3RN0UT | currently not, but i can create one that's not the problem |
| 14:18.12 | lunra | basically that image has to go onto microSD card |
| 14:18.18 | lunra | it can't go right onto a HDD |
| 14:18.54 | lunra | The NAND (flash) install script seems to need to be run from a running cubieboard |
| 14:19.35 | lunra | so you need to boot the cubieboard from a microSD card, then run the install script (or leave it on microSD), then you can move some stuff onto HDD |
| 14:19.53 | B3RN0UT | maybe we should go the other way if that's easier... :D for me it doesn't matter which OS i use, all what i want to do is to set up owncloud :D |
| 14:20.11 | lunra | unfortunately these devices are not suited to people who haven't got a good Linux background, but we can try to help |
| 14:20.38 | lunra | especially since some things are frustrating even for people who have been doing this for ages, and not everything is documented well... |
| 14:21.19 | B3RN0UT | haha ^^ i've found a good instruction how ot set up owncloud but it's based on a raspberry |

| 14:22.00 | B3RN0UT | so he introduce the set up on raspbian |
| 14:23.06 | lunra | raspbian and debian are similar, just that raspbian is optimised for Raspberry Pi (and won't run elsewhere afaik, certainly not without modification) |
| 14:23.12 | lunra | so, you're on the right track |
| 14:23.17 | lunra | but you'll need a microSD card |
| 14:23.42 | lunra | sorry if I'm not quite making sense, I'm a little bit sleep deprived |
| 14:23.45 | B3RN0UT | that's what i thought, i've trouble at the first steps the rest should go on it's own |
| 14:24.05 | B3RN0UT | but the cubieboard has some space directly on the board or? |
| 14:24.07 | ttmrichter | lunra: You can flash the NAND from the USB, no? |
| 14:24.22 | ttmrichter | It's just finicky and bad for your sanity. :) |
| 14:24.26 | lunra | yes, but IIRC it's hard to make those images |
| 14:24.30 | lunra | like REALLY hard |
| 14:24.44 | ttmrichter | Oh, I see. Making a custom NAND image strikes me as black magic indeed. |
| 14:24.49 | B3RN0UT | isn't it possible to install some kind of bootloader directly on the board or do i miss understood anything here ^^ |
| 14:24.53 | lunra | B3RN0UT: It does have some NAND flash, but it's difficult to program it from another computer |
| 14:25.34 | lunra | u-boot bootloader runs from microSD or NAND but noone has used it to boot from SATA afaik and either way modification is needed |
| 14:25.39 | B3RN0UT | it must be similiar to my android smartphone where i've installed cyanogen mod doesn't it? |
| 14:25.47 | lunra | kind of |
| 14:26.17 | lunra | Do you have a microSD card? |
| 14:26.46 | B3RN0UT | only in my smartphone |
| 14:26.56 | B3RN0UT | which size should be necessary? |
| 14:27.04 | lunra | according to the forum post, 2GB |
| 14:27.08 | B3RN0UT | mby a microsd is at my house xD |
| 14:27.17 | lunra | ? |
| 14:27.33 | lunra | the card will be completely erased when you put the image on it |
| 14:27.36 | B3RN0UT | maybe i can find one in a old device ;) |
| 14:27.43 | B3RN0UT | yeah i know |
| 14:27.50 | lunra | so you'll have to back up everything on it |
| 14:28.02 | lunra | okay, just making sure, people sometimes don't realise until after they do it ... |

| 14:30.48 | B3RN0UT | and can it handle a 8gb one? |
| 14:31.12 | ttmrichter | B3RN0UT: There's a MicroSD reader in the board that can cope, supposedly, with 64GB cards. |
| 14:32.06 | B3RN0UT | sound gr8 :D |
| 14:32.25 | B3RN0UT | btw do u have time to help me setting up? i wouldn't steal your freetime |
| 14:32.27 | ttmrichter | I've only tested it with a 4GB one myself, and indeed that only today. |
| 14:32.38 | ttmrichter | Setting you up how? |
| 14:32.53 | ttmrichter | I'm competent to help you get a pre-built distro on an SD card and beyond that no farther. :) |
| 14:33.02 | lunra | B3RN0UT: The microSD card can be put directly in the cubieboard but you will have to use a card reader with your regular computer to put the image on |
| 14:33.03 | ttmrichter | ('Cause that's all I got done today.) |
| 14:33.16 | lunra | (the cubieboard can't work as a really big card reading device for your computer) |

| 14:45.03 | B3RN0UT | yes |
| 14:45.11 | B3RN0UT | should i use it again the same way? |

| 14:45.26 | B3RN0UT | k mom |
| 14:45.27 | lunra | did you verify the md5 sum? |
| 14:45.33 | B3RN0UT | md5 sum? |

| 14:46.14 | lunra | I don't know how you'd obtain the md5 in Windows though |

| 14:46.49 | cubieboard2 | did the same thing today. really easy. @b3rn0ut: i can help you. |
| 14:47.26 | lunra | alright, basically, you write the image to the microSD card, then put the card into the cubie and turn it on, you should get output on HDMI |
| 14:47.58 | lunra | depending on this guy's kernel config, which I have no idea about, your SATA HDD should be usable already but you might have to partition it |
| 14:48.24 | cubieboard2 | open up win32diskimager, select the cubieez image file and click write. :D that's basically it |
| 14:48.33 | lunra | (fwiw I'm running my cubieboard1 with Arch Linux on NAND flash with /home on a 1TB SATA HDD) |
| 14:48.53 | cubieboard2 | just make sure, that you select the correct device to write |
| 14:49.07 | B3RN0UT | haha yes thx :D |
| 14:49.18 | lunra | yes, this is important, it's easy to destroy data with these kind of tools |
| 14:49.22 | B3RN0UT | i guess the cardreade is usb 1.0 WTF |
| 14:49.50 | B3RN0UT | 2% :/ we'll wait ^_^ |
| 14:49.51 | cubieboard2 | and btw the user is root and the password is cubieboard |
| 14:50.06 | B3RN0UT | yes I've read it before on another site/tutorial |
| 14:50.24 | lunra | probably not a good idea to run owncloud as root, B3RN0UT |
| 14:50.30 | B3RN0UT | @cubieboard2 my problem is/was i've tried it directly on the hdd which wont work... ^^ |
| 14:50.34 | lunra | so you might want to make a note to read about creating a new user |
| 14:51.07 | lunra | oh, I assumed you were using a SATA HDD, is it actually USB? |
| 14:51.14 | lunra | (it doesn't really matter either way, I'm just curious) |
| 14:52.10 | B3RN0UT | ok a normal user with no write rights yes? and configure under the new user owncloud as root like at win7 am i right? :D |
| 14:52.25 | B3RN0UT | the hdd is attached directly on the sata port |
| 14:52.50 | lunra | I'm sorry, I don't understand what you said about users |
| 14:53.15 | cubieboard2 | i'm not sure but did you try to write the image on the hdd? |
| 14:53.24 | cubieboard2 | and it didn't work? |
| 14:53.32 | B3RN0UT | you've said i should use another user to set up owncloud |
| 14:53.40 | lunra | as for the HDD, good, I hope that SATA is enabled in the cubieez kernel image (people who upload images ought to list their kernel config!) |
| 14:53.41 | B3RN0UT | a user without any root rights yes? |
| 14:54.07 | lunra | B3RN0UT: Yes, but they'll need write permissions for the files that owncloud will work with |
| 14:54.17 | lunra | I'm not familiar with owncloud so I can't help with that prt |
| 14:54.18 | lunra | *part |
| 14:54.19 | B3RN0UT | ah that's the point yes ^^ |
| 14:54.25 | B3RN0UT | no problem |
| 14:54.28 | lunra | but you should be fine once you get this running on your cubieboard |
| 14:54.47 | B3RN0UT | cubieboard2: lunra told that the board can't boot from the hdd directly |
| 14:55.22 | B3RN0UT | 7% done -.-''' |
| 14:55.58 | B3RN0UT | i cancel it and put the micro sd into my phone this should work faster xD |
| 14:55.58 | lunra | oh what the hell, to use GPIOs you have to tell the board in the fex file?! Not worth losing my uptime-prestige :> |
| 14:56.04 | lunra | uhh |
| 14:56.07 | lunra | not a good idea |
| 14:56.14 | B3RN0UT | why? |
| 14:56.24 | lunra | the card reader is less likely to modify the data |
| 14:56.30 | B3RN0UT | you see the sd in the explorer as one |
| 14:56.46 | lunra | well, I wouldn't risk it, but if you want... |

| 15:19.12 | popolon | B3RN0UT, you can only boot on µSD (using the cubieboard2 integrated reader) or integrated flash nand |
| 15:19.46 | popolon | but after that, you can flash an uboot version that boot on SATA or USB disk |

| 22:54.18 | wooy | Baronawesome: ntfs is really bad choice in linux; you would probably get better results teaching your window speak ext3 or something |
| 23:02.08 | popolon | ntfs => harly keep good timedate, sucks lot of cpu, very slow |
| 23:02.16 | popolon | no user rights management ! |
| 23:02.27 | popolon | and usefull rights |
| 23:02.34 | popolon | & flags |
| 23:03.50 | GargantuaSauce | yeah ntfs performs "ok" on a desktop platform where you have a few gigabytes of memory to throw at buffering |
| 23:03.53 | popolon | https://popolon.org/gblog3/?p=165&lang=en <= translated the most part of using Focus images to boot on SATA with working linaro (hw graphic acceleration still missing) |
| 23:04.02 | GargantuaSauce | but for a platform liek this it would be advisable to avoid ntfs for sure |
| 23:04.16 | popolon | in any case it is far slower |
| 23:04.20 | popolon | on linux |
| 23:04.37 | popolon | and you will not be able to keep most of unix files rights and flags |
| 23:05.24 | *** join/#cubieboard cbsrobot (~cbsrobot@cust.static.46-14-217-89.swisscomdata.ch) |
| 23:05.27 | popolon | good enough for some not precious data files |
| 23:13.58 | Baronawesome | I thought it was because of some sort of hardware bottleneck cubieboard had |
| 23:14.07 | Baronawesome | well, i'll try formating it to ext4 |
| 23:15.04 | GargantuaSauce | ext4 is also preferable because it uses journaling for data instead of just metadata, and if you're anything like me you knock out the power to the damn thing twice a day |
| 23:20.08 | *** join/#cubieboard akaizen (~akaizen@199-241-200-198.PUBLIC.monkeybrains.net) |
| 23:22.26 | froy | Baronawesome, my spinning sata drive is noticeably faster than my 10x (30MB/s) uSD card. |
| 23:22.32 | froy | on my cubieboard |
| 23:23.02 | Baronawesome | so it is really not a bottleneck |
| 23:23.13 | Baronawesome | should've known that using NTFS from start was a bad idea |
| 23:24.30 | GargantuaSauce | yeah the limiting factor is really fuse/ntfs-3g |
| 23:24.58 | GargantuaSauce | or rather, the above running on a relatively wussy SoC |
| 23:32.34 | froy | fuse ntfs-3g is slow even on fast computers |
| 23:32.36 | popolon | even on a corei3 |
| 23:32.40 | popolon | ntfs-3g is slow |
| 23:33.02 | popolon | I mean really slow, and has high cpu usage |
| 23:35.02 | popolon | I use it for data on my wife notebook thinking she will perhaps use preinstalled windows a day, but as, she doesn't use it at all, and work easily with xubuntu |
| 23:35.11 | popolon | I today think to reformat it to ext4 |
| 23:40.32 | popolon | hope there will be quickly nice netbook, with arm SoCs => throw x86 and it's preinstalled windows |
| 23:41.42 | popolon | s/netbook/notebook/ |
| 23:42.03 | popolon | else large tablet with keyboard |
