[nslu2-linux] Re: Unable to access slug after installing SlugOS

 

I couldn't ping it, no.

As it turned out from googling I found a note that even if you use a static IP, it should be in the DHCP range. Once I did that, I was able to access things as expected.

Thanks.

Re: [nslu2-linux] Unable to access slug after installing SlugOS

 

I did pretty much everything on the page, except the Optware stuff at the bottom. I then installed lighttpd, perl, and rsync. When launching lighttpd, it will give erros about missing libraries. Just use the 'opkg install ???" where ? marked is replaced by the name of the missing library. Just use the name and not the version part. Let us know how you are doing and we can get you running out there.

What instructions have you followed thus far?

Here's the definitive page (all others should be considered obsolete or
questionable at best):

http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/SlugO/InstallandTurnupABasicSlugOSSystem

As noted by Patrick already, SlugOS has neither a telnet server nor a
web server installed -- SSH is the only way to communicate with SlugOS,
at least until you get some external storage configured and install
either a web server or a telnet server.

Re: [nslu2-linux] Unable to access slug after installing SlugOS

 

Can you ping it? Standard dos ping program should get answers which verifies not only that is alive, but you have the correct address. SSH is the only way as it doesn't have a telnet program. Go download Putty.exe, its free and works good.

I just upgraded mine to Slug OS BE 3.15. Works great! By the way, there is no web server loaded. I installed lighttpd.

Re: [nslu2-linux] transmission on cs08q1armel

 

Hi!

Try the oficial repository of openwrt
http://downloads.openwrt.org/backfire/10.03.1/ixp4xx_generic/packages/

Hi,


So I tried to send this to the maintainer of the transmission package, oleo@email.si, but it looks like his email is no longer valid.

I've been trying to install transmission on a Buffalo Linkstation LS-WVL, the CPU is an armv5tel.

The latest verion of transmission in the ipkg repository http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs08q1armel/cross/stable/Packages is version 2.61-1, but when I installed and tried to run it it failed while trying to load libssl-0.9.7.
The openssl package downloaded and installed was of version 0.9.8

Looking it up, transmission needs at least openssl of version 0.9.8 or higher.
I also tried compiling it on my own, downloading the optware toolchain making the cpu-target and ipkg toolchain, and doing a make transmission-ipkg, but I ran into the same issue.
Is there a problem with the package, or am I doing something wrong?
Any pointers for how to debug and fix issues like these in the future when cross compiling other software using optware?

Thanks,
Michael

[nslu2-linux] Unable to access slug after installing SlugOS

 

I recently purchased a used NSLU2 with the intent of putting wview on it for weather station support.

Upon installing the latest SlugOS per instructions, I cannot access the slug in any way (telnet or via the web interface, nor any ping) once the installation is complete and it reboots. Reading around suggested I should install unslung OS first and confirm the IP address is set to what I expect it to be. Installing unslung works fine. I can install (including SSH) and configure as its instructions suggest. But then when installing SlugOS again, same response. I am not able to telnet or use the web interface (*.77 default).

Suggestions?
