i had an old install that worked, but had a lot of clutter and half finished ideas. after a little tinkering and reading i decided to try wiping the partition to start clean and used http://projects.doozan.com/debian/ to get a fresh clean wheezy install. changed it to jessie and did apt-get dist-upgrade and got a nice clean debian 8 install. everything seems to work. the only reason i asked abby troutsoup - Debian
basically if i install debian, is the stock debian kernel able to work fine? or do i need one of the tweaked ones listed here? i've messed around with my dockstar before but it's been over a year so i dont remember what needs done with the kernel. It is a Seagate Dockstar. thanks for the answer to a probably simple question!by troutsoup - Debian
just did a plain vanilla wheezy install then used this kernel: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096 i ended up removng the virtual package for the linux image for kirkwood: linux-image-kirkwood:armel it kept trying to push that 9.3.1 or whatever kernel that refuses to load after that i went into the apt settings and changed em over to testing and it all seem pretty good so faby troutsoup - Debian
i did a fresh install from the kirkwood.debian-wheezy.sh script and changed this one line to have it load testing (jessie) instead. this also is on a dockstar. # debootstrap configuration RELEASE=testing <---CHANGED THIS FROM WHEEZY VARIANT=minbase ARCH=armel and it downloaded and everything looked good, but after rebooting it gives the same error...

pmount gives me this pmount -t exfat-fuse /dev/sdb1 /media/test Error: invalid file system name 'exfat-fuse' pmount's man page sounds like this might not work because it doesn't support exfat. small shame since i keep some of my thumbdrives in exfat to go back and forth between windows and mac. at least it mounts my FAT32 and NTFS ones. it even mounted an HFS+ one inby troutsoup - Debian
i have a udevadm command, it gives a ton of info about the drive. it shows "ID_FS_TYPE=exfat" but the mount command i tell it that its type "exfat-fuse"... is there a way to map exfat to use exfat-fuse? thanks! udevadm info --query=all --name=/dev/sdb1 P: /devices/platform/orion-ehci.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/host7/target7:0:0/7:0:0:0/block/sdb/sdb1 N: sdb1 S: diskby troutsoup - Debian
any idea how to get this to mount exfat automatically with udev? i have the fuse exfat module installed and can mount them with the regular mount command. mount -t exfat-fuse /dev/sdb1 /media/mountpoint ext, ntfs-3g and fat32 work great with the udev configuration kraqh3d posted.by troutsoup - Debian
as root running /etc/cron.daily/lighttpd also gave the same authentication error, i didn't feel like mucking around with the shadow file and figured out a different way to get those cron errors to stop passwd --lock www-data > Edit: I got a strange mail from cron, complaining > about /etc/cron.daily/lighttpd: > > su: Authentication failure > (ignored) > su: Aby troutsoup - Debian
just to add to this i have a PNY attache 4gb, brand new purchase (sept 2011). when i turn on my dockstar, uboot goes to the recovery distro of jeff's that i installed over top of the pogo linux. on reboot it will boot to debian that i installed on the PNY drive. works normal and as expected with an old 2gb sandisk cruzer. its probably 3 years old. of note with the PNY, it also misbehaby troutsoup - uBoot
