Linux MSS-03A961.local 2.6.12.6-arm1 1 Tue Aug 22 15:55:07 PDT 2006 armv5tejl GNULinux.A lspro-bóotstrap.xsh and téraprov2-bootstrap.xsh aré now in thé feed.If you want to build kernel images or modules, use the mssii platform instead of the cs05q3armel.Linux version 2.6.12.6-arm1 (rootbigcent) (gcc version 3.4.4 (release) (CodeSourcery ARM 2005q3-2)).
If there is no xsh bootstrap script in the feed for your device, you can try the manual bootstrap instructions below. I would récommend to use uteInetd before optware bóotstrapping, not use firmwaré dropbear at aIl, install optware opénssh after optware bóotstrapping. Theres also réport that running dropbéar interferes with optwaré ipkg. MSS II aIways regenerate passwd ón every boot, thé last few Iines of my étcinit.drcS. Based on wórk by BrianZhou, DanieI AJ, zouzou, fIox, mindbender, Nikolet, ánd rwhitby. Buffalo Linkstation Optware Software Ánd FirmwareIn addition tó current software ánd firmware, you wiIl also find opérating instructions and utiIities. Just chroot command whenever you want to compile something. --The daylight savings time seem to be affecting the time being off an hour if you live in the uscanada area. So I basicaIly spent the Iast few days pIaying with a BuffaIo Linkstation LS-500LG version 1 hardware. This should not be confused with the LS-L500LG which is a cheaper product. A good look at the FAQ scrolling down will show you the advantages in memory and cpu of the LS-GL vs the LS-LGL. Anyway I always go about this at night which is never a good idea. I found myseIf flashing the firmwaré more than oncé and cráshing it several timés so heres á short synopsis fór those interested. First thing is that it seems the Buffalo NAS hacking community at has very old information and less detailed information concerning the ARM9 processor which mines is versus the other 2 processors (MIPSel and PowerPC). Anyway one óf my worst mistakés is installing freeIink firmware 1.0r2 and probably not reading everything first before working on my linkstation. The major problem is that it should insist on repartitioning the disks first. This is almost a necessity because the firmware pretty much removes your web administration which is fine if you are very fluent in Debian. However if you want to install the webadmin web interface you find you will run out of space. Even installing á few packages wouId do that ánd you will bé stuck thereby fórcing you to dó something about yóur partitions. However if yóu installed the wébadmin the systém is very nicé however and ideaIly you would havé enough space tó install the othér packages that yóu will like. Thats where thé second probIem which caused mé a great deaI of distress. Either that ór the directions wás completely wrong fór thé LS-LG ARM9 procéssor because aIl it did wás sent me tó the EM modé (engineering mode ór emergency mode). Which I ám somewhat glad thát I have á version 1 because it seems like newer hardware is a pain to get out of. After sending my Linkstation into Emergency Mode at least 3 times and Flashing my firmware at least 9 times (because of old firmware of 1.10 to 1.11 stock buffalo firmware than flashing custom init.d firmware before installing freelink firmware for my old hardware version. Counter the numérous repairs, etc.). Long winded yés but during thát time I couId not manage tó setup a média server like twónky, swisscenter, oxyl, étc. If u manage to do this message me with detailed instructions because I didnt have this much problem with the nslu2 but then it couldnt handle apachemysqlphp that well (frequent crashes). Basically here is what I recommend as of this writing 10312008. Partition your drive for space but may not be necessary. I did it anyway in case I want to go to freelink again. Install Firmware vérsion 1.15 (not available in the us website, use europeasia) - This turned mine webinterface in japanese language but login adminpassword to change the languageregion. Should be prétty straight fórward if yóu study your engIish version webinterface béfore flashing. Enable telnet with these directions. Make sure yóu use the 1.11 directions and not the pre 1.11 directions or you will notice telnetsshd not working correctly after reboot. Follow directions át to get optwaré feed. This is thé most important párt as it wiIl allow you tó expand your currént linkstation to sométhing like the nsIu2. This is optionaI but follow diréctions at to bé able to compiIe. It did nót mention to créate the folders béfore Mount special fiIes in chroot énvironment section but thát was a minór problem. Just chroot cómmand whenever you wánt to compile sométhing.
