| 01:36.47 | ByronT | who me? thank you |
| 01:37.04 | ByronT | I'm sitting here trying to figure out how pissed to get at my bank |
| 01:38.30 | [g2] | I guess that depends on what they did |
| 01:38.58 | ByronT | first they cut off my online bill pay ability (without telling me) |
| 01:39.26 | ByronT | then they cancelled the payments that I had sent |
| 01:39.51 | [g2] | doesn't sound good at all |
| 01:40.00 | ByronT | they have corrected the second part of that... but it looks like they have still cut off my access and now nothing is downloading |
| 01:41.51 | ByronT | so how do we go about the doco for OpenSlug? |
| 01:42.32 | [g2] | Good question. It's kinda a different animal from Unslung in many ways |
| 01:42.49 | [g2] | a clean start and also similiar to some other OE distros |
| 01:43.12 | ByronT | talking to dyoung - it sounds like the best bet would be for me to build and install myself |
| 01:43.18 | [g2] | kinda more like a server appliance |
| 01:43.38 | beewoolie-away | what's doco? |
| 01:43.43 | [g2] | are you serial enabled ? |
| 01:43.48 | [g2] | hey beewoolie-away ! |
| 01:43.58 | ByronT | but if I am to write doco from a user standpoint - from the binary installation side, I think it might be better for binary install |
| 01:44.29 | beewoolie-away | ? doco -> docu? |
| 01:44.30 | [g2] | Sure that makes total sense |
| 01:44.42 | beewoolie-away | udoc? |
| 01:44.50 | ByronT | no, I am not serial enabled, but I purchased my "Frankenslug" last week |
| 01:45.05 | [g2] | beewoolie-away, there's a fair bit of documentation with Unslung thanks to ByronT and some others |
| 01:45.14 | ByronT | dyoung! |
| 01:45.31 | ByronT | (the original docu (doco) writer) |
| 01:45.47 | beewoolie-away | ~praise ByronT |
| 01:45.49 | jbot | All hail ByronT! |
| 01:46.06 | [g2] | I've heard that before and it's true |
| 01:46.24 | ByronT | blah.. I just reworded the doco, nbd |
| 01:46.43 | [g2] | beewoolie-away, OpenSlug is nearing a Beta release which will be our first binary release |
| 01:47.02 | [g2] | beewoolie-away, you've built and installed OpenSlug right ? |
| 01:47.17 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: Nice. Just in time for me to do my first slug firmware upgrade. |
| 01:47.38 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: I haven't done much with it. Most of my slug-time has been devoted to APEX issues. |
| 01:47.57 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: I'd like to add USB storage support next. |
| 01:48.04 | [g2] | nod. you should build and run OpenSlug from OE |
| 01:48.45 | ByronT | my first big question about openslug - is serial enable a *requirement* or is it a big recommendation? |
| 01:48.46 | [g2] | then you can add yourself to the yahoo db and we'll get closer to the 20 alpha users we need for the beta (we have 17 of the needed 20) |
| 01:48.58 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: I think I've built it....actually it looks like I built unslung. Let me kick-off an openslug build :=) |
| 01:49.10 | [g2] | thx |

| 01:50.14 | [g2] | exactly |
| 01:50.32 | [g2] | beewoolie-away, are you pointing to the symlinks or the full packages dir |
| 01:50.46 | beewoolie-away | Um, I'm not sure what that means? |
| 01:51.04 | [g2] | does it parse 2000+ files ? |
| 01:51.08 | beewoolie-away | Yeah. |
| 01:51.12 | beewoolie-away | 2069 |
| 01:51.14 | [g2] | that's the full boat |
| 01:51.42 | [g2] | there's a short-cut for Unslung where it only parse like 370 |
| 01:51.53 | beewoolie-away | I don't have much patience for hacking on oe. I'm gonna let it ride for the time being. |
| 01:51.56 | [g2] | and OpenSlug will work the same way |
| 01:52.05 | [g2] | ok |
| 01:52.06 | [g2] | np |
| 01:52.36 | [g2] | this should be a fire and forget for a couple hours |
| 01:52.41 | [g2] | then all is fine |
| 01:53.11 | [g2] | beewoolie-away, are you pointing at the nslu2-linux repo ? |
| 01:53.24 | beewoolie-away | I don't know what that is. I |
| 01:53.25 | [g2] | who's your "bk parent" |
| 01:53.26 | rwhitby | [g2]: unless there are any other changes you're thinking of putting in, then I think it's time to start thinking about packaging up a release candidate binary out of OpenSlug 1.2-alpha ... |
| 01:53.31 | beewoolie-away | I'm using the oe repo. |
| 01:53.50 | beewoolie-away | Should I use the nslu2 one instead? |
| 01:53.55 | rwhitby | yes |
| 01:53.55 | beewoolie-away | I think I have room for it. |
| 01:54.04 | [g2] | beewoolie-away, You'll want to go to the nslu2-linux and pull and update |
| 01:54.16 | beewoolie-away | OK. Let me check on it. |
| 01:54.24 | beewoolie-away | good thing I've got oodles of disk space |
| 01:54.30 | [g2] | bk pull; bk -r co -q |
| 01:54.45 | beewoolie-away | What's the url...save me from looking it up. |
| 01:55.19 | [g2] | rwhitby, I'd like to fix either busybox or add the find/cpio to the jffs2 parition |
| 01:55.46 | [g2] | or even add some minor support for the opensling |
| 01:57.29 | [g2] | beewoolie-away, If we add ext2 support to APEX then I then will be able to pull the kernel out of the rootfs and load it |
| 01:57.38 | rwhitby | ok, my preference is to just add find, cpio and mke2fs to openslug-image, and then we can use them in switchbox from either unslung or openslug in the same way, and have the ability to opensling from recovery mode or from jffs2 boot |
| 01:57.42 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: That's on the list, too. |
| 01:58.03 | *** join/#nslu2-linux rwhitby-away (~rwhitby@rwhitby.nslu2-linux) |

| 01:58.36 | [g2] | rwhitby, you mean add them to switchbox |
| 01:58.54 | rwhitby | no, I mean in openslug-image |
| 01:59.11 | rwhitby | switchbox then mounts the jffs2, and uses them from there. |
| 01:59.28 | rwhitby | see maintenance mode in switchbox linux to see what I am talking about |
| 01:59.56 | [g2] | and if the jffs2 partition is hoses then maintenance mode is hosed |
| 02:00.23 | rwhitby | yes, but recovery is still there, and you can load a jffs2 from a flash disk or something |
| 02:00.55 | beewoolie | [g2]: I'll be damned. uboot doesn't support ext2. |

| 02:55.31 | [g2] | great |
| 02:55.46 | beewoolie | There is ext2 code in grub. |

| 02:56.16 | beewoolie | [g2]: Yeah. ffs, too. |
| 02:56.17 | [g2] | I think they have personality files for the different fs's |

| 02:56.30 | beewoolie | [g2]: Personality files? I see source files. |
| 02:56.35 | [g2] | ffs ? |
| 02:56.54 | beewoolie | ffs is part of mach |
| 02:57.27 | [g2] | hey I hear they *finally* booted GNU/Linux on that a month or so ago |
| 02:57.45 | beewoolie | Mach is an OS kernel. What are you thinking of? |
| 02:58.57 | [g2] | that should probably be GNU/Hurd right ? |
| 03:00.44 | beewoolie | [g2]: GNU/Hurd is an implementation of mach. It was originall from CMU, IIRC. |
| 03:01.20 | [g2] | http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/02/04/028220&tid=117&tid=190&tid=1 |
| 03:02.03 | Tiersten | [g2]: Whats that got to do with Linux? |
| 03:02.59 | beewoolie | [g2]: They're just leaving out the history. GNU is implementing a version of the kernel. Just as Linux is an implementation of, say, SYSV. I may have the pedigree wrong, but the idea is the same. |
| 03:03.00 | [g2] | <[g2]> that should probably be GNU/Hurd right ? |
| 03:15.44 | beewoolie | [g2]: That's what I'd say. |
| 03:16.57 | [g2] | beewoolie, the whole micro kernel things is *so dead* its like RISC/CISC |
| 03:18.28 | VoodooZ_movie | [g2], it's strange, even my fresh repo is broken! I'm trying more stuff. |
| 03:19.13 | kergoth | [g2]: heh, micro kernel is still king in environments with hard real time requirements, like medicine, where QNX is still quite popular. |
| 03:19.57 | beewoolie | [g2]: It's a fine abstraction, but performance suffers too much. I used the mach kernel at CMU when I was there. IMHO, it's someone's idea of beauty. |
| 03:20.02 | dyoung-web | VoodooZ_log: rm downloads/switchbox-4.8.tar.gz |
| 03:20.39 | beewoolie | [g2]: It's kinda like this thing some people have with C. They think that language FROBOTZ is going to take over, but there is almost always someone willing to code in C and get a faster result. |
| 03:20.45 | [g2] | kergoth, last I looked in hard rt custom kernels were > 50% of the market |
| 03:21.17 | VoodooZ_movie | dyoung, excuse the ignorance but how? |
| 03:21.32 | beewoolie | But not >50% of development. Those figures are out-of-scale because of mobile phones, automobiles an the like. |
| 03:21.36 | [g2] | VoodooZ_movie, rm sources/switchbox-4.8.* |
| 03:21.42 | VoodooZ_movie | ic |
| 03:21.59 | [g2] | assuming your source is in sources |
| 03:22.41 | beewoolie | kergoth: I think that ARM is one of the most shipped architectures, but that doesn't mean most people know how to use it. |
| 03:23.21 | beewoolie | kergoth: hello kergoth. It's been a while since we've chatter. |
| 03:23.30 | beewoolie | s/tter/tted/ |
| 03:24.20 | [g2] | beewoolie, it's all moving to the Linux borg :) |
| 03:24.28 | [g2] | just wait 5-10 years |
| 03:25.23 | beewoolie | [g2]: Well, there's a lot of effort going into Linux because it's open. Duh. And a good segment of the people who use these commercial OSs don't need the hard rt. Linux is a great alternative... or it will be. |
| 03:26.57 | [g2] | beewoolie, nod. and I really think the GPL makes a big difference in innovation in the long run. Just look at linux in the last 10 years and how far BSD-4.4 lite has come |
| 03:27.41 | beewoolie | [g2]: Tell me more about BSD. I don't know much about how it compares. |
| 03:28.29 | beewoolie | Is BSD-4.4 the commercial product? |
| 03:30.19 | [g2] | beewoolie, we'll one might argue that Wind River's non-Linux offerings is not a bunch more than a 4.4-lite clean up |
| 03:30.39 | [g2] | they bought BSDI and killed it right |
| 03:30.47 | beewoolie | OK. Now I know what you mean. I thought I read that WR had switched to linux...no kidding. |
| 03:31.08 | [g2] | they did |
| 03:31.20 | [g2] | 3-4 months ago |
| 03:32.21 | [g2] | And I think its because FreeBSD, Wind River, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and MicroSoft all do their own things and to really share a bunch |
| 03:32.59 | [g2] | I forget whether it was 98 or 2K that uses the BSD IP stack |
| 03:33.41 | beewoolie | Interesting. I don't think I knew that. I did know that the 98 stack sucked. |
| 03:33.52 | ByronT | 2k |
| 03:35.14 | ByronT | 2K and of course, now XP |
| 03:36.06 | beewoolie | ByronT: So the BSD license lets them do what they want to with the code and not share, right? |
| 03:36.55 | [g2] | yup |
| 03:37.24 | ByronT | what [g2] said |
| 03:37.38 | kergoth | i hate it when people say the GPL is more free. the GPL is a voluntary sacrifice of _personal_ freedom in favor of the community benefit. |
| 03:37.38 | beewoolie | So why would anyone contribute to BSD? |
| 03:37.56 | [g2] | well there are open projects where ppl share |
| 03:38.07 | beewoolie | kergoth: it isn't free. It's open. |
| 03:38.13 | [g2] | but someone could just grab the code and sell it for a fortune |
| 03:38.30 | beewoolie | [g2]: do you mean Win2K? |
| 03:39.10 | [g2] | well M$soft incorported it into a products yes, but think lots of companies like Juniper |
| 03:39.18 | kergoth | there are plenty of open bsd licensed projects. look at openssh and all the other projects that came out of there. just companies arent obligated to release their changes, so it tends to be entirely voluntary work |
| 03:39.23 | kergoth | heh |
| 03:39.25 | kergoth | ah well |
| 03:39.26 | [g2] | used BSD as the basis of their router OS |
| 03:39.40 | kergoth | mm, pizza. |
| 03:39.51 | beewoolie | whatever. I don't see why anyone would contribute that that project. |
| 03:40.03 | dyoung-web | Mmm.... Noodles.... ;-) |

| 05:35.18 | jp30 | hi samms71, fire away |
| 05:35.32 | samms71 | wait a sec..dog wants out...brb |
| 05:39.25 | samms71 | k...i want to modify the memory on my slug to 64MB. i read the fatslug howto but i can't find the linux source files to modify in the bitbake packages tree. i have a build env setup w/ bitbake on gentoo, i can build code but where do i see the code to modify it? |
| 05:40.29 | jp30 | samms71, you need someone who's more of a firmware / hardware guru than me |
| 05:40.49 | jp30 | i haven't touched a soldering iron in oh... |
| 05:40.58 | samms71 | jp30...thx anyway then...i got the hardware part down it's just finding the code part that i am having problem with.. |
| 05:41.17 | samms71 | jp30 can't find a .h file that i need to modify.. |
| 05:43.35 | jp30 | what's the .h file part of? the kernel? |
| 05:46.46 | samms71 | the howto mentions a ipx4xx.h file to config the arm chip selects. |
| 05:48.23 | jp30 | i see... yes, you need someone more with more hardware know-how than me |
| 05:48.42 | samms71 | ok...thx.. |

| 06:50.43 | garpinc | cool |
| 06:51.05 | garpinc | what's the problem with libdvdread and transcode? |
| 06:51.51 | jp30 | libdvdread is missing a file, you probably forgot to check it in |
| 06:52.00 | jp30 | transcode ... well, it's weird, but.... |
| 06:52.00 | garpinc | WHich file? |
| 06:52.38 | jp30 | libdvdread: sources/libdvdread/libdvdread.conf is missing |
| 06:52.49 | jp30 | transcode: zcat: .../unslung/downloads/transcode-1.0.0beta2.tar.gz: not in gzip format |
| 06:53.01 | jp30 | (told you the problem with transcode was weird) |
| 06:53.32 | garpinc | I don't have that conf file in my sources???? |
| 06:53.41 | jp30 | it's not in cvs |
| 06:54.36 | jp30 | my guess about the transcode problem is that the server you download it from might be silently ungzipping it before sending it on |
| 06:54.42 | garpinc | It's not in cvs because I don't have it. |
| 06:54.53 | garpinc | What's the error? |
| 06:54.54 | jp30 | odd |
| 06:55.30 | jp30 | install -d /home/unslung/packages/builds/libdvdread-0.9.4-ipk/opt/etc/ |

| 06:55.45 | jp30 | that's during libdvdread-ipk |
| 06:57.11 | garpinc | Thatd do it I guess I never tries to do an ipk. I'll fix the make file.. |
| 06:59.07 | jp30 | garpinc, it's always a good idea to try building an ipk; there are lots of things that can go wrong during make install when cross-compiling |

| 06:59.33 | garpinc | yes I probably just plain forgot... |
| 06:59.38 | garpinc | That should work... |
| 07:02.15 | garpinc | wrt transcode it's wierd when I click on link on site it tries to download file transcode-1.0.0beta2.tar.tar |
| 07:03.38 | garpinc | On site http://www.transcoding.org/cgi-bin/transcode |
| 07:06.34 | jp30 | can you get it from an ftp site instead? |
| 07:06.39 | jp30 | ...or a mirror? |
| 07:07.04 | garpinc | cvs but that will take some time... |
| 07:07.47 | jp30 | best to avoid cvs if you could get it with http / ftp instead |
| 07:08.58 | garpinc | I looked at the mirrors mentioned and I did not see the beta tarball so it's going to have to be cvs |
| 07:14.09 | jp30 | hmm... it may have to be... |

| 10:45.44 | rwhitby | morning |
| 10:48.20 | rwhitby | for a 1.5Gb openslug cornice disk, how should I partition it? |
| 10:48.41 | rwhitby | 128MB for swap, nnMB for rootfs, and rest for /home ... |
| 10:49.31 | rwhitby | I wonder what a fully configured openslug (with *all* possible packages) takes up on a disk? |
| 10:50.17 | rwhitby | Any suggestions on a default openslug partition scheme? (for when opensling is given a blank disk with no paritions on it ....) |
| 10:51.14 | jacques | why even have separate / and /home ? |
| 10:51.14 | rwhitby | I guess I could follow the unslung scheme for the moment ... then someone could use the linksys firmware to partition the disk, and keep their data intact when moving to openslug ... |
| 10:52.05 | rwhitby | I'm thinking of being able to move the same disk between stock linksys, unslung and openslug, and only having to blow away one partition of the three (thereby keeping the user's mp3 collection still available on the disk) |
| 10:52.24 | rwhitby | so what is data now on unslung would be /home on openslug |
| 10:52.33 | rwhitby | and what is conf now would be / on openslug |
| 10:52.38 | rwhitby | and swap would remain the same |
| 10:53.36 | ka6sox-office | okay so swap is SDX3 |
| 10:53.37 | rwhitby | this would only be for a default partitioning scheme - we wouldn't touch a partition table that had already been carefully crafted |
| 10:54.02 | rwhitby | yeah, /home on sda1, / on sda2 and swap on sda3 (all by default) |
| 10:54.24 | rwhitby | and only sda2 gets touched by unsling and opensling |
| 10:55.08 | ka6sox-office | share/hdd/conf is sda1? |
| 10:55.39 | rwhitby | conf is sda2 isn't it? |
| 10:57.02 | rwhitby | yeah, it is |
| 10:57.10 | ka6sox-office | yeah...its late |
| 10:57.28 | rwhitby | . /dev/sda1 on /share/hdd/data type ext3 (rw) |
| 10:57.28 | rwhitby | . /dev/sda2 on /share/hdd/conf type ext3 (rw,sync) |
| 11:00.37 | ka6sox-office | okay then /home and / make sense |
| 11:06.23 | rwhitby | ok, I'm going to make sda2 to be 256MB (same size as my flash key) |
| 11:07.13 | rwhitby | then 128MB for swap (probably twice what it needs to be) and the rest for /home |
| 11:09.01 | ka6sox-office | this is for OpenSlug? |
| 11:09.09 | rwhitby | yep |

| 11:18.23 | rwhitby | dyoung has an electric shock cable hooked up, and he gets a shock when you say that word ... |

| 11:22.34 | rwhitby | yeah |
| 11:22.40 | rwhitby | nice work |
| 11:23.05 | rwhitby | once I get external disk booting working, I'll be enabling bluetooth modules, so I expect I will need to use it then |
| 11:25.20 | giel | i've written it on the wiki page but i'll repeat it to be sure: i have not tested any of this, so don't blame me if removing anything which i've listed breaks something ;) |
| 11:25.58 | rwhitby | yep, that's the basis under which we all work here :-) |
| 11:27.52 | giel | well, and it's always true with alpha software ofcourse |
| 11:28.18 | ka6sox-office | *insert standard disclaimer here* |
| 11:28.44 | ka6sox-office | well...I give up for the night... |

| 11:28.55 | giel | nn |
| 12:09.38 | rwhitby | ok, running OpenSlug from an external disk. Now to get it to happen automatically .... |
| 12:10.06 | jacques | neat |
| 12:14.19 | giel | rwhitby: btw, i thought of something else |
| 12:14.44 | giel | rwhitby: when using pivot_root, you should unmount the dir you pivot initrd to after boot, and do a freeramdisk on /dev/ram0 |
| 12:14.54 | giel | rwhitby: gets you back about 1mb of mem |
| 12:16.43 | rwhitby | yep, we've got that covered. Not going to do it under everything is working |
| 12:18.47 | giel | ok, but it is something to remember... for instance you should put freeramdisk in busybox :) |
| 12:19.44 | rwhitby | hmm - we put it in unslung and switchbox - guess we need to add it to openslug busybox too :-) |
| 12:20.11 | giel | you don't really need it in switchbox i guess |
| 12:21.01 | rwhitby | that's true |
| 12:21.38 | rwhitby | wonder if you can copy it from /initrd/bin and use it .... |
| 12:22.01 | rwhitby | use the switchbox freeramdisk in openslug directly :-) |
| 12:24.23 | giel | hm, you can't run it from initrd/bin |
| 12:24.35 | giel | 'cause you only can run it when initrd is unmounted |
| 12:24.44 | giel | so you could copy, unmount, run, delete |
| 12:24.57 | giel | but then i think it's a better solution to just put it in busybox |
| 12:25.21 | jacques | I think we can afford it |
| 12:25.25 | rwhitby | I agree, I was just being facetious |
| 12:25.43 | jacques | that's what I thought :-) |
| 12:26.10 | giel | you succeeded :) |
| 12:31.56 | rwhitby | I just succeeded in an automatic boot to external disk too ... including dropping back to jffs2 if the disk is not connected or is hosed. |
| 12:33.15 | rwhitby | Preferred root device is /dev/sda2 (disk 1) |
| 12:33.16 | rwhitby | Sleeping 10sec while waiting for disk... |
| 12:33.16 | rwhitby | mount: Mounting /dev/sda2 on /mnt/newroot failed: No such device or address |
| 12:33.16 | rwhitby | umount: /mnt/newroot: Invalid argument |
| 12:33.16 | rwhitby | Cant find valid rootfs on /dev/sda2, using jffs2 ... |
| 12:33.17 | rwhitby | Root filesystem will be mounted from /dev/mtdblock4 ... |
| 12:35.10 | jacques | nice! |
| 12:35.43 | giel | are you checking on the existence of init? |
| 12:35.54 | rwhitby | yep |
| 12:35.56 | giel | k |
| 12:35.57 | giel | nice |
| 12:36.26 | giel | on my setup at home i have the 10s delay trimmed down to 2s |
| 12:37.25 | rwhitby | yeah, for unslung 3.16 we went from 10 to 5, but got lots of people complaining |
| 12:37.45 | giel | stupid ass slow hdd's :) |
| 12:42.03 | rwhitby | Preferred root device is /dev/sda2 (disk 1) |
| 12:42.03 | rwhitby | Sleeping 10sec while waiting for disk... |

| 12:42.36 | jacques | yay |
| 12:42.55 | jacques | I've wanted this for a long time |
| 12:44.14 | giel | maybe we should introduce a .hdd_delay on jffs2 |

| 13:07.30 | perlguru-work | but Gallery should with ImageMagick also ;) |
| 13:07.31 | peterroubos | yep worked it out, it's running |
| 13:08.00 | peterroubos | It works with imagemagic now, but Image magick wants to overwrite some library |
| 13:08.16 | peterroubos | and if that is allready installed, imagemagick will abort installation |
| 13:08.23 | perlguru-work | -force-overwrite ;) |
| 13:09.16 | peterroubos | hehe, I just uninstalled the lib first... (eh you know what lib that is?, otherise I have to search for it again, for documentation) |
| 13:09.54 | perlguru-work | no |
| 13:10.50 | perlguru-work | i had no problem installing imagemagick |
| 13:10.50 | peterroubos | no problem, i'll look into it, will write the howto now and put the -force-overwrite in it |

| 13:11.38 | perlguru-work | got these? jhead, jpegtran |
| 13:12.13 | giel | rwhitby: yep |
| 13:12.34 | rwhitby | ok, to prepare an external disk, you need to parition it with fdisk, then format it with mke2fs, then use the following command to copy the rootfs over to it: |
| 13:13.19 | rwhitby | "cd / ; /usr/bin/find . -print0 -mount | /usr/bin/cpio -p -0 -d -m -u /mnt/sda2" |
| 13:13.33 | rwhitby | (where /mnt/sda2 is where you mounted the partition). |
| 13:13.57 | giel | and what about device nodes? |
| 13:14.06 | rwhitby | double check that /mnt/sda2/dev/console exists, then touch /.sda2root (or whichever partition you prepared) in the jffs2. |
| 13:14.22 | rwhitby | then reboot |
| 13:14.53 | rwhitby | giel: that's why we're using find and cpio |
| 13:15.49 | giel | rwhitby: uhm yeah, but no device nodes will be copied this way, will they? |
| 13:15.56 | rwhitby | did for me |
| 13:16.13 | giel | hm okay |
| 13:16.19 | giel | but isn't /dev a mounted ramdisk? |
| 13:16.27 | rwhitby | not in openslug |
| 13:16.32 | giel | ah ok |

| 13:50.16 | perlguru-work | peterroubos: remove 'share/hdd/conf' from paths, because some people have /opt on the data part (like me) just use /opt/etc/... |
| 13:51.05 | perlguru-work | is there a slugbug on the dependancy of imagemagick on bzip2? |
| 13:51.24 | peterroubos | ok |
| 13:51.53 | peterroubos | @perlguru, not tha I know about, I found that out myself |
| 13:52.00 | perlguru-work | and you could add some headers, like: Installation, Configuration, Notes, etc... |
| 13:52.26 | perlguru-work | peterroubos: check slugbug.nslu2-linux.org |
| 13:52.50 | peterroubos | Because I got errors using Imagemagic, I tried to run it standalone and it gave me an error about a missing lib, I googled, saw that it was part of Bzip2 |
| 13:54.41 | perlguru-work | ok, look at #105 and #106 ;) |
| 13:55.20 | perlguru-work | (we should have a bug-day) |
| 13:55.37 | peterroubos | #106 is new to me |
| 13:55.44 | perlguru-work | :) |
| 13:56.54 | peterroubos | hehe :-) I'll works some more on the how-to l8r (this evening) kids just came out of school and I must entertain them. |
| 13:57.13 | peterroubos | bye |
| 13:58.23 | VoodooZ_Work | morning |
| 14:00.09 | rwhitby | VoodooZ_Work: got my BT dongle - now I need a copy of your defconfig :-) |
| 14:00.30 | VoodooZ_Work | good. |
| 14:00.54 | VoodooZ_Work | The problem is nothing works anymore so I can't rebuild my darn private changes. |
| 14:01.08 | VoodooZ_Work | but I can give you the major CONFIG_ lines |
| 14:01.25 | VoodooZ_Work | some of them are optional but I didn't get a chance to clean them up. |
| 14:07.13 | rwhitby | ok, can you email me the defconfig? |
| 14:07.25 | rwhitby | giel: ping |
| 14:09.44 | rwhitby | ok, anyone object to the following changes to OpenSlug kernel defconfig ... (22 lines to follow) |
| 14:09.58 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_PM is not set |
| 14:09.58 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_APM is not set |
| 14:09.58 | rwhitby | CONFIG_PACKET=y |
| 14:09.58 | rwhitby | CONFIG_NET_SCHED=m |
| 14:09.58 | rwhitby | CONFIG_NET_ESTIMATOR=m |
| 14:09.59 | rwhitby | CONFIG_NET_CLS=m |
| 14:10.00 | rwhitby | CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=m |
| 14:10.02 | rwhitby | CONFIG_NET_CLS_POLICE=m |
| 14:10.30 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_INPUT is not set |
| 14:10.30 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV is not set |
| 14:10.30 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV is not set |
| 14:10.30 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_SOUND_GAMEPORT is not set |
| 14:10.31 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_USB_HID is not set |
| 14:10.31 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT is not set |
| 14:10.33 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_HID_FF is not set |
| 14:10.35 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_HID_PID is not set |
| 14:10.37 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_LOGITECH_FF is not set |
| 14:10.39 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_THRUSTMASTER_FF is not set |
| 14:10.41 | rwhitby | # CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV is not set |
| 14:10.51 | rwhitby | CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_FTDI_SIO=m |
| 14:10.51 | rwhitby | CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_VISOR=m |
| 14:10.51 | rwhitby | CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_PL2303=m |
| 14:10.54 | rwhitby | (that's it) |
| 14:14.37 | Tiersten | Why is the visor one made into a module? |
| 14:15.16 | rwhitby | oh - should it be a =y? |
| 14:15.32 | VoodooZ_Work | Did somebody actually test those changes though? I know I screwed my build pretty badly last time I tried to do blind optimizations. |
| 14:15.53 | Tiersten | No. Why do we have it at all? |
| 14:16.18 | rwhitby | cause we have at least two Treo users on the list :-) |
| 14:16.23 | Tiersten | ah |
| 14:16.33 | VoodooZ_Work | rwhitby: Just in case you missed it: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/NetworkSlugOverBluetooth |
| 14:16.36 | Tiersten | Only because you're one :) |
| 14:17.10 | rwhitby | hey, there's gotta be some perks to this job .... |
| 14:17.21 | Tiersten | heh |
| 14:17.45 | Tiersten | Just don't start using a PowerMate okay? I think I can justify a Palm driver but a USB knob is pushing it :) |
| 14:18.37 | rwhitby | didn't you know that the whole nslu2-linux.org project was just a way of getting people to write stuff for my slug ... |
| 14:18.46 | Tiersten | :) |
| 14:20.09 | rwhitby | VoodooZ_Work: yep, got that page, and the links off it too |
| 14:21.03 | VoodooZ_Work | good |
| 14:21.21 | giel | rwhitby: pong, looks ok for me |
| 14:21.46 | rwhitby | ok, that saved another 23k |
| 14:22.42 | VoodooZ_Work | is it possible openslug's kernel was too fat? all build from yesterday kept crashing at openslug-image. with an error about padding and size . |
| 14:23.40 | VoodooZ_Work | And those were stock unmodified. I don't know what the hell is going on with my builds lately. nothing seems to work. |
| 14:24.53 | rwhitby | no, kernel was fine here |
| 14:25.14 | VoodooZ_Work | I just flashed one that was even compiled without the -j x tweak and although it built fine this time once flashed it give s me the libgcc_s.so.1 error again |
| 14:26.19 | VoodooZ_Work | Unless you guys are using uclibc? |
| 14:26.45 | rwhitby | giel: something went wrong. I guess I need to rebuild the rootfs too ? |
| 14:26.59 | rwhitby | (got an oops and kernel panic) |
| 14:27.15 | VoodooZ_Work | what does it say? |
| 14:27.37 | giel | rwhitby: hm, weird |
| 14:27.43 | rwhitby | nslu2 login: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 853875df |
| 14:27.43 | rwhitby | pgd = c0004000 |
| 14:27.43 | rwhitby | [853875df] *pgd=00000000 |
| 14:27.43 | rwhitby | Internal error: Oops: f3 [#1] |
| 14:27.43 | rwhitby | Modules linked in: ixp425_eth ixp400 |
| 14:28.08 | VoodooZ_Work | odd. not what I'm getting. |
| 14:28.21 | rwhitby | I just ran the new kernel with the old rootfs, so any modules in the rootfs are from the old build (not from the new kernel build) |
| 14:28.35 | giel | shouldn't really matter i think |
| 14:29.08 | rwhitby | Are you in a position to test small changes to the defconfig there? |
| 14:29.30 | giel | not now |
| 14:29.35 | giel | i'm at work |
| 14:30.09 | rwhitby | ok, I'll just try doing only the input device stuff first. |
| 14:38.53 | rwhitby | ok, just removing input devices worked. I'll stick with that for the moment (unless we go past 1MB) |
| 14:39.34 | VoodooZ_Work | I'm also curious about the APM and PM junk as I wanted to clean stuff up too. |
| 14:39.49 | VoodooZ_Work | Did you try the PREEMPT one? Is it worth it or? |
| 14:39.58 | rwhitby | no, dunno. |
| 14:40.13 | rwhitby | I just do what giel tells me to do :-) |
| 14:40.17 | VoodooZ_Work | <PROTECTED> |
| 14:40.31 | VoodooZ_Work | Maybe I should start pestering him then :) |
| 14:45.12 | giel | no! don't pester me! :) |
| 14:45.27 | giel | wasn't someone else trying PREEMPT? |
| 14:48.16 | giel | i don't think PREEMPT is really needed for the slug... it's mostly useful for responsiveness in desktop/multimedia systems |
| 14:48.21 | VoodooZ_Work | I don't know. It's been in the back of my mind since I started playing with the slug. |
| 14:48.37 | VoodooZ_Work | Well, wouldn't that help me for robotics. |
| 14:48.50 | VoodooZ_Work | real-time and timers? |
| 14:48.58 | giel | hm... yeah, probably |
| 14:49.09 | VoodooZ_Work | What's the side-effects? |
| 14:49.10 | giel | you're experiencing sluggish behaviour in userspace now? |
| 14:49.23 | giel | heh sluggish |
| 14:49.26 | giel | i meant laggish |
| 14:49.33 | VoodooZ_Work | Not really |
| 14:49.44 | giel | well, if it ain't broke, don't fix it :) |
| 14:49.57 | VoodooZ_Work | then again, I spend most of my time working on openslug so the robot code is lagging a bit. |
| 14:50.06 | giel | the downside is that preemption introduces many possible race conditions and locking issues |
| 14:50.12 | VoodooZ_Work | I'm starting to test my computer vision stuff slowly. |
| 14:50.15 | giel | in the kernel that is |
| 14:50.21 | VoodooZ_Work | ouch |
| 14:50.25 | giel | so you can try and hope the ixp is preemption safe |
| 14:50.34 | VoodooZ_Work | What about the scheduler options you mentionned in the wiki page? |
| 14:50.42 | giel | those are i/o schedulers |
| 14:50.48 | VoodooZ_Work | I'm ditching the ixp and csr crap anyways. |
| 14:50.55 | giel | hm, then you can probably use preemption |
| 14:51.02 | VoodooZ_Work | I use I2C a lot for sensors. wouldn't that help? |
| 14:51.43 | giel | generally, kernel preemption improves responsiveness |
| 14:51.53 | giel | are you modifying kernel code yourself? |
| 14:51.53 | VoodooZ_Work | I mean the I/O sched stuff. |
| 14:52.00 | VoodooZ_Work | nope. |
| 14:52.12 | giel | oh, probl. not, with I/O sched i meant block device I/O |
| 14:53.02 | VoodooZ_Work | i see. |
| 14:53.38 | giel | time for some coffee |
| 14:53.47 | VoodooZ_Work | any tips on making sure i2c doesn't fail me? It's kind of my achilles heel as all my sensors and motors are controlled via it. |
| 14:54.19 | rwhitby | don't burn out the GPIO? ;-) |
| 14:54.35 | VoodooZ_Work | heheheh. good one! |
| 14:54.42 | VoodooZ_Work | Nah! been there, done that! :) |
| 14:56.38 | giel | there, my procfs stub works |
| 14:56.56 | giel | (oh, you can ignore that remark, it doesn't have anything to do with the slug) |

| 15:30.33 | rwhitby | Inquiring ... |
| 15:30.33 | rwhitby | <PROTECTED> |
| 15:32.34 | VoodooZ_Work | good sign |
| 15:32.55 | rwhitby | built everything as modules instead of compiling it in |
| 15:33.18 | VoodooZ_Work | What I do is I setup pand to search for a connection on startup so my robot can connet to my portable which acts as a NAP. |
| 15:34.06 | VoodooZ_Work | and with BNEP on too after they connect the bnep0 interface will come up and configure itself if the interfaces file is setup correctly. |
| 15:34.22 | VoodooZ_Work | Unless you're needs are different of course. |
| 15:34.37 | VoodooZ_Work | IN my case I just want a plain TCP/IP tunnel |
| 15:35.09 | rwhitby | In my case, the slug will be acting as a bluetooth network gateway to allow the Treo to get to the LAN and internet. |
| 15:35.15 | VoodooZ_Work | to route request to the internet is a bit more complicated though. I've read about bridging but I'm sure there's other ways. |
| 15:35.25 | VoodooZ_Work | makes sense. |
| 15:35.44 | VoodooZ_Work | In my case, the slug is "mobile" so it's the other way around. |
| 15:35.52 | rwhitby | BTW, I didn't have to comment out the pcmcia-cs stuff, I just allowed it to build |
| 15:36.14 | VoodooZ_Work | But I'd love to use them for allowing my portable to surf around the house too eventually. |
| 15:36.35 | VoodooZ_Work | of course. It's not a problem. but I just wanted to save space |
| 15:37.07 | VoodooZ_Work | did you use the bluez-utils-nodbus one in your openslug.conf? |
| 15:37.24 | rwhitby | just ipkg installed it manually |
| 15:38.18 | VoodooZ_Work | cool. the nodbus removes all the useless dbus stuff which is nice as when I started I had to use the whole thing and there was errors. |
| 15:44.55 | *** join/#nslu2-linux [g2] (~g2@g2.nslu2-linux) |
| 15:46.22 | VoodooZ_Work | morning [g2] |
| 15:46.55 | rwhitby | [g2]: 1.3-alpha is released |
| 15:47.06 | ByronT | morning [g2] |
| 15:47.15 | [g2] | morning |
| 15:47.24 | [g2] | rwhitby, what's in 1.3 ? |
| 15:47.40 | rwhitby | switch to external hard disk |
| 15:48.14 | [g2] | ah... the find and cpio stuff |
| 15:48.17 | rwhitby | check logs 2.5 hours ago |
| 15:48.20 | [g2] | mke2fs |
| 15:48.32 | [g2] | will do |
| 15:48.41 | rwhitby | also changed switchbox to fallback to jffs2 if the disk is not connected or is hosed |
| 15:49.04 | [g2] | did you bump the switchbox rev ? |
| 15:49.09 | rwhitby | yep |
| 15:49.19 | [g2] | ok, I'll pull and build not |
| 15:49.21 | [g2] | now |
| 15:49.29 | rwhitby | everything should be bumped |
| 15:49.38 | [g2] | I'm quite excited about OpenSlug |
| 15:49.45 | ByronT | have me a good binary for the weekend! |
| 15:50.17 | ByronT | FrankenSlug is just pining for it |
| 15:50.30 | [g2] | I think the only big issue is working out the ehci interrupt issue |
| 15:50.39 | rwhitby | [23:42]<rwhitby> ok, to prepare an external disk, you need to parition it with fdisk, then format it with mke2fs, then use the following command to copy the rootfs over to it: |
| 15:50.39 | rwhitby | [23:43]<rwhitby> "cd / ; /usr/bin/find . -print0 -mount | /usr/bin/cpio -p -0 -d -m -u /mnt/sda2" |
| 15:50.39 | rwhitby | [23:43]<rwhitby> (where /mnt/sda2 is where you mounted the partition). |
| 15:50.39 | rwhitby | [23:44]<rwhitby> double check that /mnt/sda2/dev/console exists, then touch /.sda2root (or whichever partition you prepared) in the jffs2. |
| 15:50.39 | rwhitby | [23:44]<rwhitby> then reboot |
| 15:52.08 | rwhitby | [g2]: I decided to partition my cornice drive the same as unslung, so that the data partition (sda1) would carry over unchanged. So the default partition scheme is sda1 is /home, sda2 is /, and sda3 is swap. Obviously OpenSluggers can change that easily .... |
| 15:52.58 | rwhitby | we could just tell people to format the drive on the linksys firmware before flashing openslug, so we don't have to teach them how to partition a drive |
| 15:53.01 | [g2] | so you still want /opt on sda2 ? |
| 15:53.23 | rwhitby | dunno - maybe sda1 is /opt :-) |
| 15:53.24 | [g2] | These are OpenSluggers right ? |
| 15:53.29 | rwhitby | yeah |
| 15:53.33 | Tiersten | The 6GB CF microdrives are going to be out soon so hopefully the 4GBs are going down |
| 15:53.50 | Tiersten | Apple have just released the 6GB iPod mini |
| 15:54.56 | rwhitby | [g2]: The main thing is putting / on sda2, so that people's data partition can stay intact when they upgrade from linksys or unslung to openslug |
| 15:55.22 | rwhitby | and then opensling only touches sda2 |
| 15:55.57 | rwhitby | (by default - of course true opensluggers will partition how they like) |
| 15:58.19 | [g2] | rwhitby, we should talk about package management issues for OpenSlug versus Unslung for the long-term (next 6 months) |
| 15:58.29 | ByronT | something tells me I'm going to need to print out this log for the OpenSlug doco |
| 15:58.47 | rwhitby | yeah, but not now - my work here is done for tonight |
| 15:59.37 | [g2] | Ok. I'm going to write up a little something on the wiki about thoughts on the three different types of OpenSlug users |
| 15:59.45 | [g2] | for the Beta release |
| 15:59.48 | rwhitby-asleep | ok, cool |
| 16:00.36 | rwhitby-asleep | night all |
| 16:00.41 | rwhitby-asleep | have fun with 1.3 |
| 16:00.41 | [g2] | nite |
| 16:00.52 | [g2] | it's building right now. THX! |
| 16:01.08 | [g2] | s/building/built/ |
| 16:01.17 | rwhitby-asleep | np - had to do it to get my bluetooth working ;-) |
| 16:02.01 | [g2] | rwhitby-asleep, is BT in 1.3 or as modules |
| 16:03.06 | ByronT | I'm right her... oh, wait BT as in BlueTooth.... |
| 16:03.17 | [g2] | nod. |
| 16:03.22 | giel | mods |
| 16:03.42 | rwhitby-asleep | actually, BT is not in 1.3 - maybe tomorrow |
| 16:04.33 | rwhitby-asleep | do you want BT modules in the base image? |
| 16:04.44 | [g2] | as modules sure |
| 16:05.02 | [g2] | as long as it doens't push us over the 1M base kernel issue |
| 16:13.07 | VoodooZ_Work | Man. My badluck will never end: I just cloned again, fresh build and now base-files craps out with: ln: creating symbolic link `/local/openslug/build/tmp/work/base-files-3.0.14-r23/imagemnt/card' to `/media/card': No such file or directory |
| 16:13.57 | VoodooZ_Work | Openslug is finally moving in beta and I can't build it anymore. f'n great. Maybe I'll take a month off. |
| 16:15.56 | VoodooZ_Work | last change was rwhitby. Do you guys do full clean builds when you test this stuff? |

| 16:22.39 | ByronT | heh |
| 16:22.49 | VoodooZ_Work | I don't blame you. I'm cursed. stay away from me. |
| 16:22.58 | ByronT | VoodooZ_Work, they do that to me too |
| 16:23.08 | VoodooZ_Work | yeah. sucks. |
| 16:23.18 | ByronT | of course, I bug them with insane newbie-ish questions |
| 16:23.21 | garpinc | I'm trying to cross compile ghostscript and one of the steps is to fill out an architecture specific file with object sizes etc. If I post it to the yahoo group can someone help me fill it out? |
| 16:27.49 | garpinc | I have uploaded it and it resides in http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nslu2-linux/files. If someone can help me fill out it's contents I can proceed with the compilation. |
| 16:28.01 | garpinc | It's called arch.h |
| 16:29.06 | VoodooZ_Work | good. kergoth confirmed it's a bug. |
| 16:29.50 | giel | hang in there, don't let it get to you |
| 16:30.37 | VoodooZ_Work | yeah, I know but it's hard to do work when the floor keeps changing under you. Oh well, It's alpha so... |
| 16:32.33 | [g2] | VoodooZ_Work, we do pulls and sometimes full builds |
| 16:32.45 | VoodooZ_Work | thought so. |
| 16:32.48 | ByronT | real life intrudes.... |
| 16:32.54 | [g2] | I know you are frustrated right now |
| 16:33.10 | VoodooZ_Work | are you guys still using nslu2-linux as your parent or the oe-devel one? |
| 16:33.19 | [g2] | nslu2-linux |
| 16:33.23 | VoodooZ_Work | ok. |
| 16:33.31 | [g2] | is that your parent ? |
| 16:33.39 | VoodooZ_Work | yep. always been. |
| 16:33.43 | [g2] | ok |
| 16:33.58 | VoodooZ_Work | I just had to change it for a sec to get kergoth base-files' fix though. |
| 16:34.00 | [g2] | I know you've been changing a lot on the build system(s) |
| 16:34.23 | VoodooZ_Work | Not really. Just trying to setup the quad opteron one. |
| 16:34.24 | [g2] | A couple days ago you had a fresh clone that worked |
| 16:34.33 | kergoth | you dont have to change the parent |
| 16:34.39 | kergoth | just specify the parent to bk pull |
| 16:34.46 | VoodooZ_Work | ok. |
| 16:34.50 | kergoth | bk pull http://oe-devel.bkbits.net/openembedded; |
| 16:35.01 | VoodooZ_Work | I was going to change it back after anyways. |
| 16:35.06 | [g2] | kergoth, *always* the MAN! |
| 16:35.09 | kergoth | heh |
| 16:35.11 | VoodooZ_Work | yep! |
| 16:35.20 | kergoth | i wasnt the man when my sed script went wild and broke 33 packages :P |
| 16:35.26 | VoodooZ_Work | :( |
| 16:35.34 | VoodooZ_Work | I drove me crazy! :) |
| 16:35.41 | kergoth | heheh |
| 16:35.42 | VoodooZ_Work | s/I/and/ |
| 16:35.51 | kergoth | that doesnt take much |
| 16:35.59 | [g2] | kergoth, even *the MAN* makes mistake or you'd be *the computer* |
| 16:36.58 | [g2] | So VoodooZ_Work I'd go back to that working setup and start changing things one at a time from there |
| 16:37.01 | VoodooZ_Work | Is it a problem if I use bk://nslu2-linux.bkbits.net/openembedded as my parent? |
| 16:37.19 | VoodooZ_Work | Or is the http version? |
| 16:37.29 | kergoth | doesnt matter |
| 16:37.32 | [g2] | nod. |
| 16:37.39 | VoodooZ_Work | ok. Just wanted to make sure. |
| 16:37.42 | kergoth | though myself for example, i need to use http most of the time. |
| 16:37.46 | kergoth | because i'm behind a proxy at work |
| 16:37.54 | VoodooZ_Work | ic |
| 16:37.56 | kergoth | http proxy, and i dont know how to get bk:// through it :) |
| 16:38.03 | kergoth | bk obeys the http_proxy var for http:// |
| 16:38.48 | VoodooZ_Work | odd. I'm getting conflicts on the pull. |
| 16:39.18 | kergoth | unsurprising, given the number of files i've been touching |
| 16:39.23 | VoodooZ_Work | heheh |
| 16:39.24 | kergoth | just do a bk resolve, it probably wont even need your input |
| 16:39.30 | kergoth | should be all automatic |
| 16:39.45 | VoodooZ_Work | not for me. It left it in RESYNC |
| 16:39.56 | VoodooZ_Work | I guess I should simply take the remote one. |
| 16:40.04 | VoodooZ_Work | (on resolve) |
| 16:40.14 | kergoth | hit 'd' |
| 16:40.18 | kergoth | look at the differences between them |
| 16:40.25 | kergoth | see if there are any local changes you need to keep |
| 16:40.45 | VoodooZ_Work | there shouldn't be as this is a fresh clone. |
| 16:40.56 | VoodooZ_Work | I get a r6 and r10 |
| 16:41.17 | kergoth | ? |
| 16:41.24 | kergoth | if you cloned an nslu2 tree |
| 16:41.31 | kergoth | and now you're pulling an assload of changes from oe-devel |
| 16:41.36 | kergoth | of course there are likely to be local changes you'd want to keep |
| 16:41.44 | kergoth | the local changes in the nslu2 tree that arent upstream yet. |
| 16:42.12 | VoodooZ_Work | ic. I thought you meant my private changes which I haven't put in yet. |
| 16:42.49 | kergoth | locally modified files wouldve aborted the pull completely, never gotten to RESYNC |
| 16:42.51 | VoodooZ_Work | The change is: mkdir -p ${D}/proc ${D}/mnt/jffs2 ${D}/mnt/repair ${D}/mnt/newroot VS mkdir -p ${D}/proc ${D}/mnt/tmpmnt ${D}/mnt/repair. |
| 16:42.56 | VoodooZ_Work | [g2]: Is it one of yours? |
| 16:43.23 | VoodooZ_Work | (switchbox_1.00.bb) |
| 16:43.48 | [g2] | VoodooZ_Work, don't think so |
| 16:44.00 | kergoth | with a switchbox package, you probably want whatever is in the nslu2 repo, as opposed to whats in oe-devel |
| 16:44.10 | kergoth | which is why i recommended not just blindly picking one or the other |
| 16:44.10 | kergoth | heh |
| 16:44.12 | VoodooZ_Work | yeah. |
| 16:44.22 | VoodooZ_Work | ok. |
| 16:44.43 | VoodooZ_Work | Maybe I'll wait until the changes get merged in nslu2 and go to lunch before I break my keyboard. |
| 16:44.45 | VoodooZ_Work | :) |
| 16:44.49 | kergoth | good plan |
| 16:45.12 | kergoth | i can go ahead and do a sync, push changes in both directions, if people want the repositories updated |
| 16:48.20 | VoodooZ_Work | I simply used the local files in both cases. |
| 16:50.59 | VoodooZ_Work | ok, base-files built. |
| 16:51.01 | VoodooZ_Work | thanks |
| 16:51.13 | VoodooZ_Work | but I'm not out of the woods yet. |
| 16:53.18 | VoodooZ_Work | I even wiped my sources folder as I want to make absolutely sure It works. |

| 22:19.40 | VoodooZ_movie | [g2], I noticed it prints this though before crashing: Preferred root device is jffs2 |

| 22:29.54 | jacques | VoodooZ_movie, do you get that crash when trying to boot while flash disk is attached? |
| 22:30.32 | VoodooZ_Home | either way. I haven't been able to get a single load to work in the last 2-3 days. ANd I've tried everything. |
| 22:31.07 | jacques | ah ok |
| 22:31.12 | VoodooZ_Home | at first I was simply trying to boot directly off jffs2 too but then I tried the default from a fresh clone and it's the same. |
| 22:31.16 | rwhitby-away | VoodooZ_Home: our repo is now fixed after kergoths wide-ranging changes (he picked up an old version of two files) |
| 22:31.43 | VoodooZ_Home | Actually, I was there when he fixed it today and that load doesn't work more. |
| 22:31.50 | jacques | VoodooZ_Home, so it crashes for you when trying to boot with nothing attached to the slug usb ports? |
| 22:32.00 | VoodooZ_Home | yep. |
| 22:32.30 | VoodooZ_Home | hold on. I just did a bk pull and I'm getting quite a few changes. |
| 22:32.40 | rwhitby-away | VoodooZ_Home: all I can say is "Works for me" - sorry. I have no idea why you're having problems after it's built correctly. |
| 22:33.12 | VoodooZ_Home | heh |
| 22:33.41 | VoodooZ_Home | It's not like I changed something this time. I just cloned and built and flashed. |
| 22:33.43 | ByronT-Work | "quite a few" holy smokes... |
| 22:34.20 | dyoung | rwhitby-away, I had to unplug my eletric shock cable. |
| 22:34.44 | dyoung | Actually it broke... I was getting to many shocks with "nefarious" and "'244". |

| 22:37.07 | jacques | 708.92B/s |
