Re: Kirkwood U-Boot and Debian Installer Script (WIP) - 8 years ago
Got home and did some testing on my side too, I screwed up the setup of the toolbox and the script was using system's tools, so the behaviour was erratic. :/ Now it properly uses the toolbox (as it can no more fallback on system tools as you see in the errors above), and I found and fixed other things too, probably also the sata issue. I also wrote a chroot function and here works finby bobafetthotmail - uBoot

I'd like to note that all that [ 120.520000] end_request: I/O error, dev mtdblock0, sector 0 [ 120.520000] Buffer I/O error on device mtdblock0, logical block 0 is not caused by my script trying to write anything, it's probably caused by the fdisk -l command I use to scan for disks.

Beta Testers (and feedback) needed! - 8 years ago
I'm developing a installer script to install uboot and rootfs in kirkwood devices (and anywhere else we get uboots for, anyway). here http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,28966 The most annoying part (getting it to download a bundle of tools I can trust and use them instead of whatever garbage tools it has in its own firmware) is done. It tests that everything is working as intended by maby bobafetthotmail - Off-Topic

Re: Kirkwood U-Boot and Debian Installer Script (WIP) - 8 years ago
Good, so I'm now releasing a partial script for testing purposes. What this script does: -asks user what they want to do (please write "00" or "01" as other entries are disabled ) -downloads and checks md5 of all tools -asks user what drive he wants to install Debian on (showing what drives are available and their sizes/filesystems) -formats the drive according toby bobafetthotmail - uBoot

Re: Debian on CISCO ON100-K9 - 8 years ago
haha, it has a SD card slot and a USB port, 2 sata ports (inside) and two eth, one of them supports PoE. Not bad but I was expecting it to use the pcie line for something. >This is a nice bedtime story, off to a good night's reboot.

Re: Debian on CISCO ON100-K9 - 8 years ago
hehe, I'm just curious. It seems like a good contender with NSA325 (because 2 gig eth) and it's still cheap enough to buy overseas from the US (as stuff at less than 20 euros don't get any customs, and this means total price of around 10 euro +20 shipping per unit, which is still a big bargain).by bobafetthotmail - Debian
