Hi,

Am trying to install optware with a 256MB sd mod that seems to be working fine. I get a weird error when running the script per the wiki page (pasted below). I'm on v23sp2

I've noticed some weirdness with mount- is unmount not available in sp2? I did the following to set things up before trying the commands below:

mount -o bind /mmc /jffs
mount -o bind /mmc/opt /opt

Tried to unmount /jffs first, but the unmount command doesn't seem to be there.

Totally stumped at this point as to why I get the IO error.

Thanks

umount /jffs -- thats the unmount

Follow the wiki its idiot proof http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Optware
Umm dont worry about jffs its not even needed
just change these two commands
mkdir /mmc/opt - i think you forgot this command
mount -o bind /mmc/opt /opt

That's the weird thing- I get "not found" error when I try to unmount- it's like the command isn't even there.

I've also treid turning off jffs and rebooting, but it still shows up- as does my opt mount (I did create it properly).

Resets/reboots don't seem to help. Seems odd to me.

[trey504]

those directories will always be there they will just not be linked to anything

make sure your mmc works use wget and grab a file and see if it writes

umount /jffs - it works for me on SP3 might want to upgrade

Okay- something else must be going on. I've flashed multiple versions and I never seem to have the unmount command.

My MMC is definitely writable- the optware script installs a bunch of files before failing. I'm following the exact wiki directions and it still crashes.

I'll try and reset everything a few more times. Just seems an odd error.

[trey504]

mount /opt so in links to /mmc/opt then run the following

cd /mmc/opt
mkdir test
ls -al - make sure the dir is there
cd /opt
ls -al - make sure your link works then run the script
wget http://pastebin.ca/raw/328107 -O - | tr -d '\r' > /opt/optware-install.sh
./opt/optware-install.sh

tell me what you get

Thanks for working with me on this-

First I wiped everything in /opt, reset to factory defaults, then held the reset button down for 30 seconds to clear the NVRAM.

Followed your instructions (had to set permissions on on the .sh), and still get the same output:

Any ideas?

Thanks...

Also- any chance this could be a problem with the SD card? It's a Panasonic 256 MB.

another thing- I wonder if maybe I'm running out of space in /tmp- looking at the script is uses that for some storage. Gotta go to bed, but will also try to clear some more space in there tomorrow.
