Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Login from console impossible

Thanks!

It definately flashed because this was the first switch to OZ from Sharp rom. Meanwhile I reflashed in desparation and have OZ and Opie working again but I don\'t dare to get me in the same situation.

First thank you Simon and ARG for your support. But...

Issueing \" ipkg install -d sd opera6.ipk\" returns

Code: [Select]

# ipkg install -d sd opera6.ipk

Cannot find package opera6.ipk.

Check the spelling or perhaps run \'ipkg update\'

ipkg_conf_write_status_files: Can\'t open status file: /usr/lib/ipkg/status for writing: No space left on device

ipkg_conf_write_status_files: Can\'t open status file: /mnt/card/usr/lib/ipkg/status for writing: No space left on device

ipkg_conf_write_status_files: Can\'t open status file: /mnt/cf/usr/lib/ipkg/status for writing: No space left on device

SIGSEGV

regardless wether I choose cf, ram or sd as destination and ram would be preferred.

AIG, the wep is suddenly working. Befor writing my first inquiry I typed in the three commands below:

Code: [Select]

echo hostap_crypt_wep >> /etc/modules

iwconfig wlan0 key s:My128WepKey

udhcp -i wlan0

and adding the line to /etc/modules was the only one accepted. iwconfig returned

Code: [Select]

# iwconfig wlan0 key s:xxx_My128WepKey_xxx   // of course my correct key;-)

Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :

    SET failed on device wlan0; Argument list too long.

while udhcp returns

Code: [Select]

# udhcp -i wlan0

-sh: udhcp: not found.

However while retrying to write this lines it suddenly works and I don\'t have any explanation.

By the way, OZ 3.3.5 seems quite unstable. About every 3rd to 5th turn on the Z blocks totally and I have to switch to battery replacement and back to normal operation to get it back to life.

Hi Folks,

I updated my original Sharp 5500G rom to OZ 3.3.5 which I thought to be a good idea. As a noob to OZ I\'m really desparate now because my wlan with wep128 is not working and the instruction here in the forum returns errors. Furthermore it seems I\'m too stupid to install a web browser from CF card opera is recognized in the local package listbut during installation not found. Finally I\'d liked to return to my old sharp rom and realized that the ospack for the german Z is neither on my CD nor can I find it on the internet. All I have is now a piece of good looking hightech with a nice OS but no longer productive at all for me.

All I want is a Z with it\'s PIM apps, web browser, wlan with wep 128 and a possibility to sync it with lotus notes. :cry:

Help! Help anyone?

Hi Folks

Does anybody know how to login from console? I run a 5500 with OZ 3.3.5 and now it requires after booting a login and my keyboard doesn\'t seem to operate. I can get only some cryptic control characters but nothing else. I tried to type in root without proper feedback as login but it doesn\'t work.

Any hints are appreciated

Ciao
