Title: Convert Bins To Ipks?
Post by: Howard Roark on April 12, 2005, 09:17:19 pm

There are Zauru packages with a .bin extension. Is it possible to convert them to .ipks? There is a package called 'inkwp' that I'd like but its a bin and won't load on my C3000.

go to a console and type: chmod +x inkwp.bin (or whatever) then run it by typing ./inkwp.bin

You just need to rename the file from inkwp_0.1.1_arm.ipk.bin to  inkwp_0.1.1_arm.ipk

The author's website is very restrictive on what extensions you can use for downloads (I know cause I used to use it). He says to rename the package but it's in Japanese
