Arch Linux 4.3.3-1-ARCH (ttyS0)


I'll say this to one newb from another, looks fixable but I'd strongly consider changing over to Debian. I completely love Debian on an E02. Regrets I didn't buy two E02s even.

arch takes a while to "settle down" on the network.

if you get an ip address and can ping it then there isnt that much wrong. wait a minute or two then attempt to login to the arch box

can you login to the unit via the serial console? I imagine you can.

Thank you for the courtesy. Do I paste the log into the message next time?

It allowed me to log in but first I had to realize that the comm port had switched from 3 to 4 cause I plugged into a different USB port. Thank you for your help. I am sure I will be back with more blunders. I do have a second e02 that I will put debian on once I unbrick that one.
Thanks for your help and courtesy.

There's a "format code" button to the right of the buttons when you're posting. I tend to like the "Insert URL" one quite a bit too.

I'm sure power users would disagree with me but here's two of like fifteen early impressions I shared with colleagues:

Thoughts:
Arch Linux: Arch aims to provide only the raw essential skeleton of Linux and therefore lacks muscle, a circulatory system and a f(reakin)' brain. I have it running on a PogoPlug and that's only with explicit install instructions and like 4 tries [Eek!] If you can get it running and make backups then all should be fairly well.

Debian Linux: on it's own it's about the same size as Arch but has muscle and steroids on that skeleton. Honestly it makes regular Mint/Ubuntu feel like they were in a VM the performance is so powerful. Many flavors.

I'll get out of your way because I know many people are able to make Arch run great, but updating mine was like updating a house of cards one card at a time; it came down every time.
