| 00:00.24 | _chris_ | pb_: nope. but somebody i worked with on the channel awhile ago managed to cc knfsd, and i put together an install fo rit |
| 00:00.46 | _chris_ | pb_: i'd be able to help you too if you're interested |
| 00:00.53 | pb_ | ah, right, cool |
| 00:00.56 | _chris_ | pb_: it's really limiting only have 2G available to you |
| 00:01.08 | _chris_ | pb_: hold one. lemme grab the package |
| 00:01.47 | Otte | _chris_: I have some questions to install the nfs-server. Ihave installed the Portmap ipkg and the nfs-server ipkg |
| 00:01.58 | Otte | but now, whats are the next steps? |
| 00:03.09 | _chris_ | Otte: do you have an /opt/etc/init.d/ directory? |
| 00:04.24 | Otte | yes, and there i have S55portmap and S56nfsd |
| 00:04.39 | _chris_ | Otte: good. you've installed the packages correctly. |
| 00:04.46 | _chris_ | Otte: do you have an /etc/exports? |
| 00:04.53 | Otte | btw. why do not work the TAB key? |
| 00:05.11 | _chris_ | Otte: do you have the bash package installed? |
| 00:06.46 | Otte | _chris_: no, i haven't a /etc/exports and no i haven't installed the bash package |
| 00:08.32 | Otte | _chris_: where i can get the bash package? ipkg list have no bash package... |
| 00:08.38 | _chris_ | Otte: ya |
| 00:08.41 | _chris_ | Otte: sorry |
| 00:08.42 | _chris_ | hmm |
| 00:08.51 | _chris_ | other unslung folks in the channel - if yer active - |
| 00:08.57 | _chris_ | I have some crosscompiled packages |
| 00:09.04 | _chris_ | that I'd like to post on the main nslu2 page |
| 00:09.07 | _chris_ | how do i go about doing that |
| 00:09.23 | _chris_ | so that folks like Otte can download a package as opposed to installing the entire development environment including cross compiler? |
| 00:11.03 | Otte | can i not add an additional ipkg download source to the ipkg config file? so i can get the package from your site? |
| 00:11.51 | _chris_ | Otte: i'm not sure. i know very little about ipkg. all i know about it i learned here :( |
| 00:13.32 | Otte | i know only ipkg a little bit from the openWRT project. That is an opensource firmware project for the Linksys WRT54G Router |
| 00:14.13 | _chris_ | Otte: right. so, back to nfs |
| 00:14.22 | Otte | yeah... |
| 00:14.55 | _chris_ | Otte: do you have the file: /share/hdd/conf/rc.d/rc.custom ? |
| 00:17.44 | Otte | no, i have no rc.d folder in /share/hdd/conf only in /share/hdd/conf/etc but there exists no rc.custom |
| 00:19.32 | _chris_ | Otte: do you have an /etc/rc.d/rc.hook ? |
| 00:20.57 | Otte | no, i'am sorry, that file exists not |
| 00:21.24 | Otte | Diversion scripts go into /unslung. You can divert as many or as few |
| 00:21.24 | Otte | scripts as you like. Simply add the name of the standard rc script |
| 00:21.24 | Otte | into /unslung and it will be run. |
| 00:21.24 | Otte | For example, I have a script /unslung/rc.local: |
| 00:21.24 | Otte | #! /bin/sh |
| 00:21.24 | Otte | /unslung/startnfs |
| 00:21.27 | Otte | return 1 |
| 00:21.29 | Otte | That will run at the beginning of the normal /etc/rc.d/rc.local, and then |
| 00:21.31 | Otte | the rest of the factory rc.local will be executed. If I do NOT want to run |
| 00:21.32 | Otte | the factory rc.local, my script would be |
| 00:21.34 | Otte | #!/bin/sh |
| 00:21.36 | Otte | /unslung/startnfs |
| 00:21.38 | Otte | return 0 |
| 00:21.41 | Otte | That is, if the diversion script returns with something other than 0, it will |
| 00:21.43 | Otte | run the rest of the factory script. |
| 00:21.45 | Otte | Note that any variable definitions or function declarations are allowed to |
| 00:21.47 | Otte | happen before the diversion script is called. This allows you to use the |
| 00:21.49 | Otte | variables and functions defined by the factory script. |
| 00:22.08 | Otte | That text i have found in the README to the firmware file. Maybe can this help me? |
| 00:24.25 | _chris_ | sounds like it. you're running a different version of the firmware than i am. |
| 00:24.50 | _chris_ | Otte: you'll need to modify the script that runs when the slug boots, and add something like: |
| 00:25.27 | _chris_ | ln -s /share/hdd/conf/etc/exports /etc/exports |
| 00:27.59 | Otte | ok, but there exists also no export file. Have you a sample export for me? |
| 00:39.50 | _chris_ | Otte: i'm running a different nfs server, so my /etc/exports file is a slightly different format than yours |
| 00:40.59 | Otte | _chris_: Thank you for your help! I have now found how i can start the nfs-server on start. |
| 00:41.23 | Otte | and i think i'll find also an sample exports file... |
