Sorry but I'am stuck. Everytime I try ipkg-link mount /media/card the z pops up with a "package not found" message for every app I have stored on card fs.
Even when i try and relink a single app say something "like ipkg-link add opera" get an error message "package opera not found. I have the latest hentges oz build on my z which is a sl5500 (collie) This is causing me problems getting opera to work again after a soft reset. I've checked the forum but nothing sticks out on on this . Any suggestions? |

Two possibilities I can think off:
1. The dest entry for /media/card is not present in /etc/ipkg.conf 2. The package db files which live under <mount point>/usr/lib/ipkg/ have vanished or become corrupted. See if either of those are true. Si |

I seem to remember editing ipkg.conf for some reason not so long ago and I may have changed this by mistake.
Anyway for the sd entry I had: dest sd /media/card/packages so I changed it to: dest sd /media/card now ipkg-link mount /media/card works fine thanks lardman! |
