Re: dreamplug - 1 year ago
so i hooked the kace m300 ssd to the dreamplug with a usb to sata converter and the dreamplug booted with Linux debian 6.2.7-kirkwood-tld-1 #1.0 PREEMPT Tue Mar 21 18:52:10 PDT 2023 armv5tel GNU/Linux can i create another with the 6.2.7 instead of the older Debian-5.13.6-kirkwood-tld-1 ?by mrc333777 - Debian

Re: dreamplug - 1 year ago
i will redo all the steps i suppose now that i know what to do and what tools i need that were missing. this is the cable i tried with the esata port, it works on the one laptop that has a esata port https://www.ebay.com/itm/302215992801 i dont think there is power coming out of that esata port for that cable to work on the dreamplug because i tried it on 2 dreamplugsby mrc333777 - Debian
Re: dreamplug - 1 year ago
should the same usb stick boot from the other usb port as well? it just errors. and the esata port does nothing when i plug a drive into it.by mrc333777 - Debian
