Angstrom & OpenZaurus / ftp password??

« on: September 18, 2004, 07:39:15 pm »

Hi guys,

Where can I find or set up a ftp password?

I did:

stelios@debian:~$ ftp
ftp>open 192.168.129.201
Username [anonymous]: root
Password:
Looking up 192.168.129.201
Trying zaurus:21
Cannot connect to zaurus: Connection refused
Waiting 30 seconds until trying to connect again

I tried with root and several possible passwords like root, rootme, Qtopia, empty password etc without any luck
I tried also as anonymous but nothing.

I change my root password as well but still nothing.

Any suggestions?

I can ssh my sl-5500 without problem and without using a password as the root doesn't have.
I cannot use ftp as I am getting the error Connection refused

I tried rootme and Qtopia as well but nothing....

Any suggestions?

Linux Issues / cannot get usb0 in debian 2.6.3

« on: September 18, 2004, 07:20:15 pm »

Hi,

Do the following with the default kernel installed (2.6.3-i-386)

Edit the /etc/hosts and add the line:
192.168.129.201 zaurus

then from a shell:

modprobe uhci_hcd
modprobe ohci_hcd
modprobe ehci_hcd
ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.1 up

then ssh -l root 192.168.129.201 and you are in

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / /usr on OZ , any problems?

« on: September 15, 2004, 08:43:15 pm »

I have all of /usr on an SD card.
There is no problem as long as you relink a few /usr/bin busybox apps to /bin ([, tail, cut, test and dc) and make sure all the busybox apps in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin point to /bin/busybox or just copy busybox to where the links can find it.

I found the answer on the sourceforge OZ mailing list.
Have fun!  

Hi dtruchan,

Thanks for your answer.

What if I do:

cp -a /usr /mnt/card/usr
cp -a /bin /mnt/card/bin

and then

rm -rf /usr /bin

ln -s /mnt/card/usr /usr
ln -s /mnt/card/bin /bin


I am not sure if I understand well about relinking. Do you mean that I won't be able to ln the dirs if I remove /usr and /bin directories?

In case that you mean something like that. what if I leave it as it is and just add 2 entries in fstab pointing in sd card?

Thanks

Hi guys,

I installed /opt /home and /root on my sd card.
I read on oz main page that moving /usr into the sd card is a bad idea.

Anyone that moved /usr to sd ?

Thanks

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / /home on SD and OpenZaurus 3.5.1

« on: September 15, 2004, 05:59:25 pm »

Does anyone here use an SD card as their home directory under the new OZ3.5.1 or even 3.3.6pre1?

If so, how stable is it?

I'm really pleased with my 3.3.5 with the above configuration, but the one annoying thing is that the SD module doesn't seem to like suspending. This means that every time I want to turn the Z off, I've got to halt it.

If one of the newer versions has a better SD module, then I think I'll be switching over proto  :-)

Hi,

I just installed /home /opt /root on my 256MB Lexus SD card and is working like a charm.
