Debian / Poky Linux Install Instructions

« on: December 18, 2007, 08:51:20 pm »

Thanks everyone for the help.  Poky seems very very basic - the only options available throught the GUI I could find are for the appearance.  It's kind of funny that the caption they have for the terminal icon says "When all else fails." because that seems to be the only place you could really do anything other than read text files or play simple games with no directions.  I am not really a command-line jockey as I can't ever remember more than a handfull of commands - is that the only way to configure anything?  Are there any applications that can be installed?

"I think you just put the files from poky on a vfat card and flash. You don't appear to change the name of the rootfs, but you need to change the names of the kernel and updater appropriately. You do need gnu-tarand the modules also.  Apologies if my memory is misleading me!  "


I changed updater.sh.akita to updater.sh and found the install instructions for pdaxrom - thanks everyone.  Could anyone tell me which file is the kernel and what it's name needs to be?

Hi all,

I bought my C1000 about 8 months ago and tried just about every distro but couldn't get them to work very well and ended up with Cacko as the distro but I was disappointed that I couldn't get my DCF-660W to work.  I have been waiting for a more complete distro to come along - hopefully one with easily-implemented WIFI support.  Poky seems very interesting (http://www.pokylinux.org/) but I cannot remember the correct install technique as it's probably been 6 months since I tried to install a new distro.  Any guides with the same techniques would be welcome.
