6000 - Tosa / ipkg confusion
« on: November 12, 2004, 10:37:11 pm »
Hi. I'm confused about what format the ipkgs are in.
I'm using http://www.linuxtr.net/oe/feed/tosa/ for my sl6000 with the sharp rom.
I tried ar -x <name>.ipkg and tar zxvf <name>.ipkg. Both report bad formatting. I tried it on my zaurus and under cygwin. I also tried this with different packages. I'm really trying to install directly from the feed, but I thought I might need to convert to the sharp format first. Any ideas about how to install these packages?
Thanks!
