Angstrom & OpenZaurus / simple question (?)

« on: October 27, 2004, 05:55:43 pm »

Hey,

This may be a completely studid question, but here goes.

I have a Zaurus 5500 running 3.5.1, the system information screen says Internal Storage - Available 36kb but the Internal Memory has 31Mb free.

How can I install apps to the Internal Memory??

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Package Installer Problems (again)

Hey,

I've been tackling 3.5.1 since about 12 this afternoon (its now 20.52). I have tried everything and anything to get some software installed, namely xmms-embedded and opie-mediaplayer2.  My problem lies when the package manager (namely aqpkg) tries to link files across a device, I get the following run of errors

ipkg: Cannot create symlink from ./opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/General/libQPEgui.so to 'libQPEgui.so.1.0. 0': Operation not permitted
ipkg: Cannot create symlink from ./opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/General/libQPEgui.so.1 to 'libQPEgui.so.1. 0.0': Operation not permitted
ipkg: Cannot create symlink from ./opt/QtPalmtop/lib/libxmms.so.1 to 'libxmms.so.1.0.0': Operation n ot permitted
ipkg: Cannot create symlink from ./opt/QtPalmtop/lib/libxmms.so.1.0 to 'libxmms.so.1.0.0': Operation  not permitted

I am at my wits end because I can't find the answer to this at all and can't install any of the software I need for my course (as well as musical enjoyment)

I think my problem falls under here.

I am trying to install my programs to the CF card I have, I followed the instructions on the thread titled Steps to a Package Manager under 3.5.1

However, the linking always fails. I always get an Operation Not Permitted error anytime ipkg-link or ln is called on the cf card. I have updated my ipkg-link script to the first one posted here.

This is meaning I can't install any software

Can anyone help?

Dave
