Title: Help Installing To Card
Post by: Magellan on September 11, 2005, 09:55:21 pm

WHen trying to install ipk's to SD card, I get an error saying I must install to main memory.  Is there a way around this to force installing to card?  I don't know much about command line stuff to talk slow.

I have the following line in my /etc/ipkg.conf file

dest sd /mnt/card

Then to install packages to the SD card I use

ipkg -d sd install foo.ipk

where foo.ipk is the name of the file containing the package to be installed.
