Just a little update: VDR was up and running in no time using the debian sources! This is just great! Now if I can work with the partitioning like the guy who wrote the Archlinux on Dockstar guide for Wheezy too, that would be just the ticket, since apparently the ext2 file system really does slow down the system (especially decryption). I'll look into that when I have time. Once more:by chessplayer - Debian
Thanks, but that was not the problem, as I have the MAC-Address mapped to a specific IP-address in the router. The Dockstar I tried it with has been "modified" for an Archlinux based VDR and that entailed changing some boot-parameters. I just tested the stick on another one (after updating the persistent net rules ...) and voila, it worked. Thanks again! chessplayerby chessplayer - Debian
Ok, I have now replaced the pogoplug NAND with thre rescue system V2 --> worked! Then, I went through the motions described here and got a success message --> fine! Tried to rebbot into wheezy and this might have worked in a way: I do get a green LED in the end. However, I cannot connect to the Dockstar via ssh after boot from the stick :-( Indeed, it did work! Now I will see waht Iby chessplayer - Debian
Jeff, laprjns, thanks for your answers. I will try that and then see what I like more: ALARM or Wheezy (where ALARM has VDR up and running, just not the live-plugin, which I think is indispensable). Cheers, chessplayerby chessplayer - Debian
Hi guys, as I have been "disconnected" from this forum for a while, I tried to set up a spare Dockstar today and managed to install the new uBoot, but failed to boot from an old stick I had prepared maybe a little over a year ago (using kernel 2.6.35-7). So I tried this Wheezy-install and got past the problem with pkgdetails using the above hint. However, now I get the following:by chessplayer - Debian
I would like to join in the praise, but unfortunately I get a keyring/validation problem with all variants I tried (starting with Gorgonne, which used to work just fine for a long time and certainly until last week) Help would be greatly appreciated if anyone knows how to get around the "xyz_armel.deb was corrupt" messages and subsequent failure to install.by chessplayer - Debian
Hello gorgone (oder lieber Hallo?), first, I would like to thank you very much for your great work. However, having used your scripts as a basis for both a VDR as well as a MythTV installation (still can't quite decide which one it will be in the end, but leaning towards VDR), there are a few suggestions I have. First of all, I have a problem with DHCP (a link to which is here DHCP Proby chessplayer - Debian
