Angstrom & OpenZaurus / help installing an ipk on openzaurus

Thank you for responding.

When I said:  They both have the ipk 'trying what i could

I meant that I copied the konqueror ipk to 'both' my  CF and  SD cards


[Type 'mount', make sure that /dev/hda1 appears (CF card) or /dev/mmcda1 (SD card)]

does not show either: /dev/hda1  or /dev/mmcda1

[f they are not mounted try 'mount /mnt/cf' or 'mount /mnt/card']

[mount /mnt/cf]

/dev/hda1 invalid argument
mount: you must specify the file system type

if I try [mount -t VFAT /mnt/cf]

I get more error msgs

[mount /mnt/card]
/dev/mmcda1: invalid argument


I'm obviously doing something wrong since I can mount and read/write from the cards using my Linux box regardless of the filesystem type



NOTES:
When I insert the CF card  I only get the new card ATA / IDE msg after a reboot
When I insert the SD card I NEVER get a msg
At times I have to reboot in order to get my socket7 wireless card to be recognized

I can read/write from both CF and SD cards using my linux 'Gentoo' desktop


Thank You very much I really want to get this working

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / help installing an ipk on openzaurus

« on: July 28, 2004, 09:35:01 pm »

Greetings,

I've installed oz 3.3.5 on a 5500

I'd like to install konqueror or perhaps opera. I've downloaded the konkeror.ipk from the openzaurus feed and copied it to both a CF and a SD card. The CF card is format FAT from the initial install the SD card is now ext2.  They both have the ipk   'trying what i could'

However, when using the file manager I don't see the ipk on either card nor can I find a HowTo on the OpenZaurus site.

Any help is appreciated. I looked searched through the forums and I'm obviously making a newbie mistake with the Z and OpenZaurus

Thanks
