Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Seeing doubles of files when only single copies exsist

« on: June 21, 2004, 01:47:14 pm »

Greetings:


I Just flashed to OZ 3.2 and upgraded Opie to 1.0.3, decided to move some stuff over to my SD  card with the following script (listed below) before installing any other software, all seemed to go well with the script so I went ahead and installed some applications such as opie-showimg_1.0.3_arm.ipk, and opie-mediaplayer_1.0.3_arm.ipk, that seemed to go well also.

Fired up the applications to try them out and I see doubles of the JPEG\'s and MP3\'s listed even though only a single copy of each file actually exists!

Could somebody please check out this script and see if I am linking somewhere I should not be or not linking somewhere I should be.

Thanks - Jim

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Selecting a zImage for the SL-5500

« on: June 20, 2004, 12:26:00 pm »

Greetings:


I have a SL-5500 with a 256MB SD card, would like to run OpenZaurus 3.2 and would like some suggestions on which zImage (memory/storage combo) to use.

After the initial installation of OpenZaurus 3.2 is complete I would like to be able to install most if not all additional software to the 256MB SD card if possible (not sure what needs to be done as far as creating directories and links to accomplish this).

What do you think?


Thanks - Jim
