Midnight Commander on Stock GoFlex Home
February 06, 2018 09:39AM
I have a GoFlex Home unit which I am aiming to upgrade in the near future, but before I do I wanted to have a good look around the system and I've found that Midnight Commander is an excellent tool for letting me do this. Unfortunately there is no package manager on the unit so I don't know how to get hold of it. Does anyone know?

Here is something similar which does work at the moment:-

Midnight commander has a lot of dependencies... so you could try mangling the code snippet in the linked post, but i dont advise it

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/mc


mount / -o remount,rw
wget
"http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/n/nano/nano-tiny_2.0.7-5_armel...;
wget
"http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/slang2/libslang2_2.1.3-3_arm...;
FILES=$(ls /root/*deb)
cd /
for NAME in $FILES ; do
    ar -x "${NAME}"
    tar zxf data.tar.gz
    rm debian-binary data.tar.gz control.tar.gz
    rm "${NAME}"
done
