| 09:34:07 | x3noDUCK | lo =) |
| 11:52:29 | wow | hello |
| 12:09:51 | wow | hello try to connect me with ppp on familiar 0.6, but doesn't work |
| 19:16:43 | rimbert | hello |
| 19:44:02 | villager | grmbl... looks like the 0.6 ipkg hoses an upgrade if I suspend it with ctrl-z while it's upgrading ("ipkg: write: Interrupted system call"), so now my libc6 is broken, any suggestions? |
| 20:14:48 | phlegm | Hey all. I was just upgrading to familiar .6 and something bad happened. The upkg upgrade seemed to go well and I noticed that it installed a few packages. I then tried to run the 5. |
| 20:14:49 | phlegm | busybox --install -s |
| 20:14:49 | phlegm | " command but it was not found. I tried installing it again but nothing worked. no ls no df etc..... after a reboot I get the dreaded no init found " |
| 20:15:48 | Wiggum | I saw something like that too. I worked with it a bit and then broke down and re-flashed .6 |
| 20:16:05 | Wiggum | which was ok for me since I didn't have much on there yet |
| 20:16:12 | phlegm | I passed the "linuxargs= noinitrd root=/dev/mtdblock1 init=/bin/ash console=ttySA0" command at boot and now I get INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty" |
| 20:16:12 | phlegm | INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty" |
| 20:16:12 | phlegm | INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty" |
| 20:16:12 | phlegm | INIT: Id "T0" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes |
| 20:16:30 | Wiggum | did you run out of space on your flash disk? |
| 20:16:40 | phlegm | I don't have a recent image to flash back either sdo any help in fixing this would be great. |
| 20:16:46 | Wiggum | doh |
| 20:17:00 | phlegm | Nope lots of room on the flash disks. This is installing locally anyways. |
| 20:17:45 | phlegm | I think busybox got fubared but don't know how to install it without getting to a prompt. Is there a way to say boot to init level 1 or something like that? |
| 20:19:52 | Flanton2 | hi |
| 20:21:06 | Wiggum | doesn't know how to send boot args through the boot command. I tried before, but the boot loader was looking for boot commands instead. |
| 20:22:26 | phlegm | hrmmmm |
| 20:23:20 | Wiggum | phlegm: let me try something on mine. I think I have an idea |
| 20:25:32 | phlegm | Sure... where should getty be? or for that matter busybox. If I can find where busybox should be I may be able to link it to getty if they are the same thing |
| 20:27:38 | Wiggum | linuxargs= < noinitrd root=/dev/mtdblock1 init=/linuxrc console=ttySA0> |
| 20:27:44 | Wiggum | you can set that in your boot loader |
| 20:27:56 | Wiggum | I'm guessing that you could set it to init 1 there? |
| 20:28:01 | Wiggum | then boot |
| 20:29:20 | Wiggum | Good news is you can do it, bad news is.... |
| 20:29:28 | Wiggum | INIT: Entering runlevel: 1 |
| 20:29:28 | Wiggum | INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel |
| 20:29:38 | Wiggum | doesn't give me a shell |
| 20:30:15 | phlegm | heh... you have to tell init=/bin/ash for it to use that for a shell. It's the console= part that has bme buggered |
| 20:30:49 | phlegm | where is your busybox file located? /bin? |
| 20:31:25 | Wiggum | ~ # which busybox |
| 20:31:25 | Wiggum | /bin/busybox |
| 20:31:26 | Wiggum | yep |
| 20:31:41 | phlegm | can you check and see if your getty is a link to busybox |
| 20:31:49 | phlegm | d |
| 20:32:11 | Wiggum | ~ # ls -l /sbin/getty |
| 20:32:11 | Wiggum | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Oct 21 21:08 /sbin/getty -> /bin/busx |
| 20:32:13 | Wiggum | yep |
| 20:32:24 | Wiggum | busx? |
| 20:32:44 | Wiggum | my mistake |
| 20:32:54 | Wiggum | didn't do a crlf |
| 20:33:01 | Wiggum | rather didn't wrap |
| 20:33:58 | phlegm | hrmmm... now how do I install busybox and fix the links heh... without booting. ;) |
| 20:35:32 | Wiggum | uh.. boot from cf? <shrug> |
| 20:36:14 | phlegm | set linuxargs= noinitrd root=/dev/mtdblock1 init=/bin/busx console=ttySA0 does the same thing. It no longer says init not found or locks up but I get the can't execute /sbin/getty errors. |
| 20:37:27 | phlegm | console=ttySA0 is probably the part calling getty right? Hrmmmm |
| 20:37:43 | phlegm | maybe set linuxargs= noinitrd root=/dev/mtdblock1 init=/bin/busx console=/bin/busx |
| 20:38:19 | phlegm | Nope... stops at Uncompressing Linux............................................. done, booting the kernel. |
| 20:38:24 | phlegm | Just hangs there. |
| 20:40:36 | phlegm | Just hangs there.? /bin or /sbin? |
| 20:41:04 | phlegm | oooo |
| 20:41:26 | phlegm | Huh.... I meant to say where is your getty located? /bin or /sbin? |
| 20:43:18 | phlegm | heh... never mind I just looked up at your previous message. :) |
| 20:44:19 | Wiggum | :) |
| 20:44:37 | Wiggum | anyone worked with CF wireless cards and the wlan drivers? |
| 20:45:03 | Wiggum | I seem to have found quite a bit of info from newsgroups/message boards. But I'm still having problems. |
| 20:45:22 | phlegm | bummer... I have no /bin/busx......... Ugh.... |
| 20:45:44 | phlegm | What kind of card do you have? |
| 20:45:50 | Wiggum | you mean busybox? |
| 20:46:13 | Wiggum | uh... well the one I'm trying to get working with it is D-Link DCF-650W |
| 20:46:17 | phlegm | yep..... |
| 20:46:23 | Wiggum | It comes up and... "works" |
| 20:46:26 | phlegm | I have that one. works for me.... |
| 20:46:30 | Wiggum | but when I try to put it into monitor mode, no go |
| 20:46:53 | phlegm | I don't think it supports all of the wireless extensions. Just a subset... |
| 20:47:11 | Wiggum | hmm |
| 20:47:40 | Wiggum | trying to use kismet |
| 20:47:50 | Wiggum | wlanctl-ng: No such device |
| 20:47:53 | Wiggum | that's what I get |
| 20:47:57 | phlegm | I tried using it in my laptop with airsnort but no go.... |
| 20:48:30 | Wiggum | works like a champ on my laptop with my Orinoco card |
| 20:48:40 | Wiggum | ~ # iwpriv wlan0 |
| 20:48:40 | Wiggum | wlan0 Available private ioctl : |
| 20:48:40 | Wiggum | monitor (89F0) : set 1 int & get 0 |
| 20:48:57 | Wiggum | It shows that monitor is a ioctrl |
| 20:48:59 | Wiggum | or so I thought |
| 20:50:06 | Wiggum | I've also gone one other question. I know it's a problem but haven't seen the fix such that it works for me. |
| 20:50:15 | Wiggum | I'm having issues with ppp on .6 |
| 20:50:25 | Wiggum | I've checked the suid bit on pppd, looks ok. |
| 20:50:25 | phlegm | Yep... my dwl650 works for me but not with the flash one... |
| 20:50:41 | Wiggum | phlegm: hmm... so maybe it's the card? |
| 20:50:54 | phlegm | I haven't even got that far with .6 yet. heh heh |
| 20:51:00 | Wiggum | :) |
| 20:51:05 | Wiggum | maybe I ought to re-flash 5.2 |
| 20:51:08 | Wiggum | err .5.2 |
| 20:51:21 | phlegm | Yep it's the card the flash one doesn't support everything that the full pcmcia one does. At least that's what I've been told. |
| 20:51:42 | Wiggum | lets out a string of offensive words |
| 20:51:53 | Wiggum | hmm, well that just sucks |
| 20:52:28 | phlegm | Hey at least you can boot. heh |
| 20:53:00 | Wiggum | :) |
| 20:53:00 | Wiggum | true |
| 20:53:19 | Wiggum | But I did have that problem before. I just didn't have anything on there that I couldn't re-install |
| 20:53:20 | Wiggum | :) |
| 20:53:26 | Wiggum | makes it much easier that way |
| 20:55:00 | phlegm | I just ran load root.... :( |
| 20:55:31 | Wiggum | DOH |
| 20:55:50 | Wiggum | well that'll fix it for sure. :) |
| 20:55:58 | Wiggum | hope you didn't have that much data on there |
| 20:56:35 | phlegm | heh... Thanks for the help guy... Good luck with the card. I have my /root backed up but it's my links to all the packages on my flash that suck to set up againh. Oh well. Have a good one. |
| 20:56:54 | Wiggum | thanks |
| 22:11:31 | gue_ | hmmm, tried to upgrade my ipaq... am i worng or did the libc-package increase (is now 2000 k great)... |
