So the setup is:
I have a SD card (2gig) in a c700. Had to put the latest rc of OZ to get the 2gig card working, works like a charm now! Partition 1 = 64meg swap Partition 2 = ext3, rest of the space, mounted in /media/card... When I try to install a package in the package manager to a destiation I created and called "SD", pointing to /media/card, it downloads the package, installs it, but when trying to make the links, it fails, apparently because there is a double slash at the beginning of the path of the link.. Any idea ? I haven't tried this in 3.5.4 as my 2gig card didn't seem to work...so I can't be 100% sure this is a release candidate bug, which is why I haven't posted in the main testing thread.. Thanks! |

In 3.5.3 I had a similar problem with an SD card that had 2 partitions. The problem then was that the /etc/sdcontrol (I think; I don't have it in front of me) script was not very smart about which partition to use. I think it has to do with which partition is mounted to /media/card vs /media/card1.
Do a 'df' to see if both partitions got mounted. Maybe you could change ipkg.conf so that the 'SD' specifier pointed to the correct partition. good luck, radioz |

In ipkg.conf I have dest SD /media/card (which is the right place where I want the stuff to be ) I do not have a sdcontrol file in etc.. I have no means of transferring the log file at work (Wifi not fully setup yet) but basically it goes like...Downloading file...configuring package...2nd package...then Linking packages installed in : SD Error linking /media/card/opt/QtPalmtop/blablabla to "//opt"QtPalmtop...blah" I think the problem is the "//" before opt ? |
