Eh?  busybox is installed on the Sharprom to begin with, is it not?

You missed this message when wizzard was tryiing to repackage the ipk from ar to tar:

The included Zaurus version of busybox does not support ar format:

Maybe one of these will?

So the answer is, yes busybox is installed, but not with ar support if you need it.

Hi,

I have the ar program, cross-compiled for gcc2.95: it works on my c750-sharp stock rom.

I tried to upload the file to ZUG downloads, but after filing all fileds and pressing the add-this-file button, I get a 'document-contains-no-data' error message !?!?!

I tried to attach the file to this post, same error.

The file is 1.2M

So, if any of you want the file, just pm me with your email, and I'll send it to you; or can anyone just host that file ?

Ah!  I wasn't aware that the Sharp ROMS didn't use a tar.gz based package but rather an ar based packged containing tar.gz files :-)
Oh, I fixed a minor bug in the script as well where if it failed to associate it now quits instead of continuing on with IP allocation.

Let me know if this works!

I also attached it to this message (but had to add a .bin extension to it because otherwise it said: You cannot upload this type of file)

Give it a shot!

Oh, I just STATICALLY compiled ar a few minutes ago.  It's pretty big, even after UCLXing it at 336K, but it at least runs on my OZ box and should on a Sharp ROM as well.

I'll attach it to this message or you can get it from the bin dir my website here:

Tried to install either ipk on my sharp rom with the graphical installer but neither worked.  Then tried to unpack and re pack the original version of the ipk and install from the command line.  This failed with a message saying zcat had found an error in control.tar.gz. which I had re-packed as well.

While I had everything unpacked I tried to run the program from /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/SLapASS.  This worked but your script then uses awk which is not installed as standard on the sharp roms.

At work now but will try later to install awk and get this working.

Running this on stock sharp of sl-6000.

When I click on the icon, it seems to work, but I never seem to be able to assosciate with any AP.  I modified the file to point to kismet, dump, and manuf.  I have it set to run as root.

When I execute the sh -x option I get the folowing:

Code: [Select]

Aborted
+ mode=134
+ [ 134 = 255 ]
+ [ 134 -lt 3 ]
+ [ /bin/true ]
+ opie-sh -g -m -M SLapASS! Simple Linux A.P. ASSociator
Comments to: kcurrie@undertow.2y.net -0 Quit -1 Find APs! -2 Configured APs
This repeats, and I have to close the terminal.

Another thing:  is SLapASS supposed to start the network and kismet, or is that something I need to do manually? If so, does the network get started using the "warwalk" profile?

TIA
