Title: problem with Open Zaurus
Post by: mistermarcin on May 15, 2004, 07:28:28 pm

Hello
Here\'s a (porbably) relatively simple question for more experienced linux\'ers out there, but I\'m a newbie, so please be patient:
I\'ve switched my SL-5500 from Sharp ROM to Open Zaurus, like it quite a bit (especially screen rotation)
but, just now I\'ve rebooted it, and it boots to login, doesn\'t load up opie.
What gives?
and can I load up opie from command?
Help appreciated.

Yes you can log in as root (or what ever user name you want) and type in

/etc/init.d/opie start

and that sould start up opie.
And make sure that that /etc/inittab is set so that the default run level is the same of opie runleve.  It sould be runlevel 2.  Now with any luck opie will start up on the automacluy on the next reboot.
