Re: NSLU hangs when inserting USB stick in installation process

* [Johan Breeven] Second one flashed the installer, logged in as installer through SSH. As soon as I plug in an USB stick (I tried several, formatted NTFS and EXT3) in port 1 or port 2, the NSLU stops reacting to keypresses, So you boot the installer, connect with SSH, and only then connect

* [heffa niceday] It works with or without .local. Just to clarify. The above is true for Mac OS X. Should be true for GNU/Linux, too, if you put search local in /etc/resolv.conf. I'm pretty far off topic for this list and more towards debian-users by now, though :) Øystein -- Nobody

* [Martin Michlmayr] They relaxed their policies a bit, which is why we have the microcode in non-free now. I don't have any IXP contacts at Intel, so I cannot ask whether they could completely open source it. Does redistributable microcode mean we might see official nslu2 install images

* [Charles de Miramon] I'm trying to transform a nslu2 in a debian/rsync backup of my workstation. Hi, (Not directly an answer to your question or even relevant to this list, but seems very close to what you want). I tried using rsync to backup my home directory, too, but quickly gave it up

Re: Fwd: Call for Debian Installer testing, before D-I Beta1 release

2008-02-10 Thread Oystein Viggen
* [Martin Michlmayr] debian-installer is still based on 2.6.22, but maybe it's 2.6.24 because you're using armel. The installer ran on 2.6.22, but it installed 2.6.24. Looks like 2.6.24-3 is out on the mirrors now, so the ethernet module will probably Just Work in the future. :) Øystein --

Hi, I recently got a new slug for playing with armel. For installing, I first tried the experimental unstable unsupported alpha release from slug-firmware.net, but it seems the sid tree has changed a bit too much since this was created (in july, I think), so it didn't work for me. Next, I

* [Adam C Powell IV] Greetings, mpich has not been building on ARM for the past month or so, stopping at the C++ static-shared lib linking moment: [...] Any ideas on what might be different on ARM such that this is failing? Broken autobuilder chroot? I tried (roughly) the following

* [Adam C Powell IV] Sounds like a problem autobuilder. But then, there are multiple ARM autobuilders, right? What's the probability that three separate builds would fail within the last month under these conditions? Are all of the autobuilders deficient, or did mpich happen to hit the

* [Aurelien Jarno] It does build correctly on a machine with more RAM (512 MB), so the problem is very probably due to limited RAM and swap on the build daemon. You should ask to requeue quantlib on another build daemon. I notice this problem seems to crop up a lot. Could the situation
