| 22:12.02 | jbot | [nslu2-camps] 1: want full linksys compatibility (including future releases), can load image through web and telnet in to run ipkg, have no clue about redboot, 2: can telnet into redboot and use linux, 3: power user, but no jtag and no custom redboots, 4: bleeding edge - custom redboots, no need or desire for linksys compatibility |

| 22:21.33 | rwhitby | Is there anyone here who would have some time to help James Depew from linksysinfo.org do a review of the Unslung and OpenSlug firmware? |
| 22:22.43 | rwhitby | jp30: g'day |
| 22:23.31 | rwhitby | jp30: did you see the TARGET variable added to the Unslung Makefile? |
| 22:26.05 | rwhitby | ~nslu2-rules |
| 22:26.07 | jbot | somebody said nslu2-rules was 1) Those who ask the questions, update the wiki, 2) Those who complain about the doco, update the wiki, 3) Friends don't let friends flash custom firmware without confirmed RedBoot access, 4) Friends don't let friends flash custom bootloaders without confirmed JTAG access. |
| 22:28.11 | jp30 | rwhitby, yes, i saw that. actually, I am just trying to get the unslung firmware to build now. would you have a moment to help me with that? |
| 22:28.22 | rwhitby | yep |
| 22:29.22 | jp30 | ok, so it's dying on gnu-config-native, complaining about "cp: cannot create regular file `patches/config-guess-uclibc': Permission denied" |
| 22:29.48 | rwhitby | on your machine, or on nudi? |
| 22:29.53 | jp30 | on my machine |
| 22:30.23 | rwhitby | hmm - dunno, haven't seen that one before. |
| 22:30.48 | rwhitby | did you do an rm -rf tmp/{work,stamps}/gnu-config-native* and try again? |
| 22:31.13 | rwhitby | (it's important to remove the directories and files from both work and stamps |
| 22:31.29 | rwhitby | bbiab |
| 22:32.24 | jp30 | ok, i'll try that now. it's not clear to me which directory the permission denied problem is occuring in. would it be a good idea to just chmod a+rX -R my whole working copy of oe? |
| 22:33.13 | rwhitby | can't hurt |
| 22:33.36 | rwhitby | when all else fails, you rm -rf tmp and start again |
| 22:40.09 | jp30 | no luck, it's consistently failing. i checked that everything was owned by me, user writeable and everyone readable. |
| 22:45.24 | jp30 | it's odd - this problem is happening early in the build, and I have managed to get further with oe builds in the past (though building openzaurus, not unslung) |

| 22:56.22 | jp30 | OK, I'm off to get a coffee. rwhitby, if you (or anyone) have any guesses as to what might be going on with my oe woes, speak up and i'll read it when i get back |
| 22:56.35 | rwhitby | I'm trying to recreate now ... |
| 23:03.53 | rwhitby | oops - built openslug instead. trying unslung now |
| 23:07.02 | rwhitby | gnu-config-native builds fine for me |
| 23:07.13 | rwhitby | sorry :-( |

| 23:38.41 | kergoth | jp30: look for a rogue 'patches' directory. quilt searches up from the S dir all the way to /, on the off chance it's being run in a subdirectory of a source tree that has quilt patches applied, so it lookes for the toplevel patches dir. if you happen to have a dir called patches in the paths it searches, the shit will hit the fan. |
