Subject: Advice on choosing a distribution please.

I'm having a little difficulty getting started on NSLU2 linux. This is
mainly as I'm also trying to learn Linux as I go along. For this
reason I opted for unslung and not openslug. All the advice pointed to
version 6.8, though I wonder if I should have gone back one version as
the version I got says beta, and some things didn't work when I tried
them.

The problem is I think some of the things I want to try may require
openslug. I'm not using this slug as a fileserver, I've got a NU54
(white box slug clone) for that, so far I only used the linksys
firmware to set the IP, format the drive and enable telnet. Should I
try openslug instead?

I have a specific goal in mind, which is to control one or more K8055
USB I/O cards from the slug.

If that ever works I'd quite like to add a USB camera and some sort of
wireless device, then by using the I/O card to control a couple of
motors I could build a simple web controlled robot. Probably never
happen but anyway...

First things first: I want to compile/build Nicolas Sutre's "Device
driver" for the K8055 on the NSLU2 and see if it works.

The program requires LIBUSB. Is this available on unslung?

To get the tools I tried ipkg unslung-devel but it failed to install.

Starting with the nslu isn't the essayist way to learn linux.

There are a some differences between unslung and a normal linux:
   - There is no gui
   - The user land utilities are based on busybox
   - ...

Don't worry about the beta.

The last release was unlung 5.5 beta.

Can you tell what didn't work?

The unslung firmware stays as close as possible with the linksys
firmware but enables you to run other applications as well.

Openslug is a lot more linux like as unslung because it's not
build from the linksys flash with all it dependencies.

Yes.

If you want to compile programs on your slug you need "crosstool-native"
but the slug is slow and is low on memory.

It's better to setup a cross compile enviroment and compile your
programs there.

Some links how to compile programs for the slug:

Thanks for the reply, I forgot to say I also installed Linux on my PC,
Ubuntu 6.06. I've been using it for about three weeks now,
dual-booting with XP.

I figured that there'd be no GUI. I can deal with that, seems like
almost all development means dropping to command line anyway so I need
to learn.

Thanks, I guess I ought to learn what busybox is

Well I'm also interested in VoIP ...
... so inevitably I tried to install asterisk (and the sounds
package). That just went wierd, I don't think it worked as it threw up
about 500 errors, mostly missing file/directory, during the install
but it didn't actually fail the install. At the end directories that
should have existed didn't and I couldn't get a demo config to run.

Previously I'd downloaded the tarball to my PC and it built, installed
and ran with the sample config with little or no difficulty.

Ultimately that could be a good thing. At some stage I'll probably
want apache and perl and I might be better off with up-to-date
versions. I think k8055 might require a 2.6 kernel anyway.

Actually I reread the author's page for k8055 and found:

You need libusb ( >=0.1.8 ) and kernel 2.6 to compile..

So I probably will need openslug, guess I'd better learn how to use
the upslug2 tool too!!

I read that page on cross compilation before but I have to admit I
didn't really understand it. That's the only reason I was looking for
a native compiler.

I have a dialup connection and I can't download any big file from
slug-firmware.net (only those who pass from the EULA):

the download starts but seems to hang-up after 5 minutes, IMO due to a
incorrect setting to PHP configuration...

I need of DebianSlug in binary format but I haven't found anywhere
except from this site...

Any idea of I could I do ?
Someone knows a mirror site or another way to do the same ?

I haven't found any e-mail address of slug-firmware.net for contact
the webmaster...


Thanks,

Subject: Remote controlled torrents on the NSLU2 (Unslung 6.8)
robbutlerast
Send Email Send Email
 
Until recently I've had an old laptop running (under Windows XP)
Apache and Azureus.

Since I got my NSLU2 I have set up a webserver and transferred my
apache files across.  I would have liked to use my NLSU2 to perform
a similar function as Azureus under Windows.

On one of my pcs (depending on which room/building I am in) I
download a torrent file and transfer it to my laptop which then
queues the torrent until existing files have finised seeding, before
downloading.

I can then harvest completed torrents through a networked drive.

Is there a way of doing this on the NSLU2 - instinct says no but I
needed to ask!!  Unfortunately my Linux knowledge is still very
basic (although better than when I got the NSLU) but I'm still not up
to compiling etc.

I've seen reference to things like torrentflux and transmission
client but technically these seem beyond me without step by step
instructions.  (CTCS didn't seem to have much in the way of
function)

Has anyone managed to achieve a web interface for collecting
torrents?  If so I'd love to hear from you (better still if you
have any files you can send me to drop into my nslu with
instructions!)

Thanks in anticipation

The Debian image currently doesn't work; you'll have to wait until the
next release, which'll hopefully be released by the end of September.

After power cycling the slug, it didn't boot up from the external hard drive.
By disconnecting the hard drive the slug was able to boot.

Normally a c compiler makes binaries for the platform it runs on.

But you can build a c compiler in such a way that it creates binaries
for a other platform (e.g. creating arm binaries on intel).

A short description how to create a environment for openslug is

Thats very bad news. Debian (the one with the installer not

Subject: Cannot talk to NSLU2 via web

Send Email Send Email
 
I have had my NSLU2 for several months now. I have had unslung 6.8
running from a flash device on drive 2 and have been using Twonky
software to act as a music server. Two days ago, on advice from
Twonky, I added a commend to my startup script. Basically, it was:
route add -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev ixp0

Since then, I cannot communicate to the NSLU via the web and ip
address. The NSLU boots up and beeps so it seems to be working, it
just is deaf. I don't think the route command killed it - but it seems
coincidental.

I have flashed the firmware with 2.3R63. No joy. I was able to Redboot
into the unit from my laptop using a crossover cable (so the hardware
is working) and cleared the sysconf area following instructions on the
NSLU wiki. Still no luck.

Is there any way to find out what address the NSLU might be
communicating on from Redboot, which seems to be the only way I can
talk to the unit.

I have Googled this issue and found several other users who had the
same problem, but there wasn't any advice that cured my issue.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I am about ready to Bin
this one and buy a replacement.

You could try to bind the mac address of your slug to a working
ip address on your computor with:
	 arp -s <ip address slug> <Mac address slug>

After that you can try to connect to the ip address.

Did you try to sniff the network on packages from the slug?

DebianSlug produces identical results, and works fine --- in fact, arguably
it's better, because if you unplug the hard drive you end up with a workable
rescue system.

I'm currently running a Debian system that was originally installed via
debinst using the unofficial official Debian kernel on top of the latest
DebianSlug with no problems.

It all depends on what kind of config are you running.
In my case, I had everything on one single partition (silly me).
I had previously used a flash with my slug, so I went back and boot
the slug without anything attached to it and restored the /linuxrc to
point to my flash (the old config was saved as /linuxrc.sav).
Next, I powered off the slug, plug in my old flash usb stick and power on.
The slug booted up normaly.
I installed samba (from the feed, it was ok).
Then I pluged in my external hd and I was able to share it's content via samba.

Just by booting the slug without anything attached to it and then
re-attach any previuos external hd that you had, you will be able to
browse it's content and save whatever you need.

I think a re-install will be needed later on.

Well my setup is a 3 partition scheme

sda1 == SWAP (hence why I cant use deb-slug atm)
sda2 == /<root>
sda3 == DATA (pretty much all the HD), this usually gets mounted to /opt

equally I regually backup /etc and /home to the DATA partition.
So everything is there backed up

I can boot off the slug (no drive attached) and ssh into it and the
drive gets mounted fine (to /media/sda#)

I tried chroot into it but it looked like a libc borked it good and
propper (cant execure /bin/bash,ash,sh)

so all that remanes is a fresh tuneup BUT if the problem still exists
when I do a "ipkg update && ipkg ugrade" the system will get borked again

either that or I go for a Debian install...

Hi all,

I added a new wiki page describing how to use nginx to be a reverse
proxy/load balancer in front of web/app server.

This is actually a way of running PHP (php-fcgi) on the slug without a

Please test the procedure. Feel free to make correction or improvement.

ipkg tried to upgrade glibc, which should never have happened. A
possible fix is this:

1. boot without a harddrive
2. connect the harddrive
3. mount the root partition somewhere accessible
4. ipkg --force-downgrade libc6 -o /mnt/rootfs

I can't test this right now, but it *should* work. If it does, can you
please send a mail confirming this?

Forgot one step. Before step 1, you'll have to wait until glibc has been

Ah well, these things happen =).
Cheers for rebuilding and rebuilding the feeds anyhow (and I don't
mean that sarcastically - its genuine) and I'll be back to report in
six hours ;)

kk will do this tomorrow night.
I did try to do
ipkg --force-downgrade libc6 -o /media/sda2
but ipkg complained abt two many sub-options

this worked
ipkg -o /media/sda2/ install libc6
and I could chroot BUT no commands would run (ie still the broken ipkg)

Talk about not proof-reading my own emails.
That should be *Cheers for upgrading the packages and rebuilding

Subject: New Slugger :-)

Gday all, my name is Antony new Slugger from Australia.

Just got my new NSLU2, was V24 firmware.....updated to V63 Firmware had
a little play around. Then changed the firmware to Unslung 6.8.

I follow the instructions included with the firmware.

Put a Kingston USB Key (500meg) in slot 1 and ran the unsling script.

Rebooted and all was as it should be :-)

I have added a couple of packages (mt-daapd, dropbear) then I plugged in
my 500g Maxtor Onetouch II drive.
Dropbear just worked out of the box.
mt-daapd took a little configing and then finding the right file to fire
it up.
once that was done it is also working

I then made a mp3 directory and sent across some mp3's.

fired up iTunes and all was as advertised :-)

I then added ntp (but have since removed this...as I belive thats the
server version and I just need the client version. (IPCOP box does the
time serving for me)

I do have one question tho.
The USB Key looks like it's constantly getting used, that is the light
on it flashes (about 5 or 6 times) every 4 seconds. So I gather
something is polling this drive continuously?

is this going to lead to an early death of this usb key?
Should I have used the HDD in port 1 instead?
But in doing this, I am guessing the HDD would never go to sleep mode
(like it did after about 30 minutes with the original V24 and V63
firmwares?

Mine is the 133mhz NSLU2, so I am going to open her up for heart surgery
later ;-)
