I am not able to install "libc" by ipkg as described in the manual. I always get:

root@WDR3600:/tmp# ipkg install libc_0.9.33.2-1_ar71xx.ipk
ERROR: File not found: //usr/local/lib/ipkg/lists/whiterussian
You probably want to run `ipkg update'

Any hints?

I think "Step 1.1..."

OpenWRT Project's team has made something different and we can't install Optware anymore.

I'm still waiting and testing it every night, since the first complaint posted here: no avail so far...

Maybe we could find other links similar to "https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/" and test it.

Yours sincerely, Marcelo.

@msantos2007 - pls let us know if/when you find Optware installation up again. i will also keep checking. presently, this 'error: line 3: can't open /lib/functions.sh' thing is proving to be an obstacle in everything! unable to install anything now due to this, neither on my old Optware flash-drive, nor on a new flash-drive!

[msantos2007]

Ok. I'll keep you guys posted and please tell us any other file directory like I wrote above.

I'm stuck in the same line 3: can't open '/lib/functions.sh' error.
I've tried it many times using this tutorial and another one from here http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=268205
I have a question: what does (unallocated space) from the partition creation means? how can you create a partition with a filesystem without allocating space?
Please help, I bought WDR3600 and 1TB HDD only to do this for home DLNA.
I have almost 10 hours trying to make work.
HEEELPPP!

It took me all day, but I managed to get the minidlna working. When I eventually figured it out, it seemed it was easiest to start from scratch by applying the dd-wrt firmware and remove all files that I created on my hard-drive. I will try to give everything that I had to do differently

Edit: I posted a modified tutorial for opkg and minidnla in the next post, but I will leave my steps here in case someone wants to try look at it without starting over.

First, I had to download opkg and libc from a different source.

http://chef.mesh.altermundi.net/downloads/r37619/ar71xx/packages/opkg_618-6_ar71xx.ipk

http://chef.mesh.altermundi.net/downloads/r37619/ar71xx/packages/libc_0.9.33.2-1_ar71xx.ipk

When creating folders in /tmp/mnt/sda2 I also created a lib directory. I ran the command "cp /lib/* /mnt/sda2/lib" Of course after this I would have to modify the startup script to mount /tmp/mnt/sda2/lib to lib.

I then created a /lib/functions.sh and copied the following text in to the file

#!/bin/ash
alias debug=${DEBUG:-:}
# allow env to override nvram
nvram_get () {
eval "echo \${$1:-\$(nvram get $1)}"
}
. /etc/nvram.overrides
# valid interface?
if_valid () (
[ "${1%%[0-9]}" = "vlan" ] && {
i=${1#vlan}
hwname=$(nvram_get vlan${i}hwname)
hwaddr=$(nvram_get ${hwname}macaddr)
[ -z "$hwaddr" ] && return 1
vif=$(ifconfig -a | awk '/^eth.*'$hwaddr'/ {print $1; exit}' IGNORECASE=1)
debug "# vlan$i: $hwname $hwaddr => $vif"
$DEBUG ifconfig $vif up
$DEBUG vconfig add $vif $i 2>/dev/null
}
ifconfig "$1" >/dev/null 2>&1 || [ "${1%%[0-9]}" = "br" ]
)

I also had to create an /etc/nvram.overrides file and write the following lines in the file

# NVRAM overrides
# This file handles the NVRAM quirks of various hardware
# this is not a replacement for nvram.
# linksys bug has lan doing dhcp; force static
lan_proto="static"
# failsafe if reset is held
[ "$FAILSAFE" = "true" ] && {
echo "### FAILSAFE MODE ####"
lan_ifname="br0"
lan_ifnames="vlan0 vlan2 eth1 eth2 eth3"
lan_ipaddr="192.168.1.1"
lan_netmask="255.255.255.0"
lan_hwaddr="00:0B:AD:0A:DD:00"
wan_ifname="none"
wifi_ifname="none"
}
# hacks for 1.x hardware
[ "$(nvram get boardnum)" = "42" ] && \
[ "$(nvram get boardtype)" = "bcm94710dev" ] && {
debug "### 1.x hardware hack ###"
vlan1hwname="et0"
vlan2hwname="et0"
# we remap old device names to new
# it's recommended that you continue to
# use the old names to preserve backwards
# compatibility
remap () {
eval $1=\"$(nvram_get $1 | awk 'gsub("eth0","vlan2") gsub("eth1","vlan1")')\"
}
remap lan_ifname
remap lan_ifnames
remap wifi_ifname
remap wifi_ifnames
remap wan_ifname
remap wan_ifnames
remap pppoe_ifname
}
[ -z "$(nvram_get lan_ifname)" ] && {
lan_ifname="br0"
lan_ifnames="vlan0 vlan2 eth1 eth2 eth3"
}
[ -z "$(nvram_get wan_ifname)" ] && {
wan_ifname="vlan1"
wan_proto="dhcp"
}



I had to edit /etc/opkg.conf (make a backup if you feel like it by typing cp /etc/opkg.conf /etc/opkg.bak and then edit the file so that the only source is…

src/gz packages http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07-rc3/ar71xx/generic/packages


At this point, if there is anything that you try to do that gives the error "error: line 4: default_postinst not found" accompanied by the message 'package name returned status 127' - You will then need to uninstall any of the packages by typing "opkg remove --force-remove package name" You will probably see an error about it not being able to execute a script but it should remove. You can confirm by typing opkg list-installed and it shouldn't list the package anymore. After you remove all the packages that are causing problems, you should be able to run 'opkg update' to replace the bad packages.

Anyway, that's everything I can think of that I had to do. Hopefully it will be some help to others.

Started from 0.5 as I don't think I needed to cover the first few steps

0.5 Wait few seconds. Then make sure both [mnt/sda1] and [mnt/sda2] are mounted on the router and shared by Samba (from DD-WRT Web Interface)


cd /tmp/mnt/sda1
touch optware.enable
cd /tmp/mnt/sda2
mkdir etc opt root lib useful
touch optware.enable
chmod 755 etc opt root
mkdir opt/lib
chmod 755 opt/lib
cp -a /etc/* /tmp/mnt/sda2/etc/
cp -a /lib/* /tmp/mnt/sda2/lib/
sleep 15
mount -o bind /tmp/mnt/sda2/etc /etc
mount -o bind /tmp/mnt/sda2/lib /lib
mount -o bind /tmp/mnt/sda2/opt /jffs

cd /tmp

wget http://chef.mesh.altermundi.net/downloads/r37619/ar71xx/packages/opkg_618-6_ar71xx.ipk


wget http://chef.mesh.altermundi.net/downloads/r37619/ar71xx/packages/libc_0.9.33.2-1_ar71xx.ipk


ipkg install libc_0.9.33.2-1_ar71xx.ipk opkg_618-6_ar71xx.ipk

2.3 You need to create a new [/opt/etc/config/minidlna.conf] file, with WinSCP, using the following content:


Code:
#port for HTTP (descriptions, SOAP, media transfer) traffic
port=8200

# network interface to bind to (this is the only interface that will serve files)
network_interface=br0

# set this to the directory you want scanned.
# * if have multiple directories, you can have multiple media_dir= lines
# * if you want to restrict a media_dir to a specific content type, you
# can prepend the type, followed by a comma, to the directory:
# + "A" for audio (eg. media_dir=A,/home/jmaggard/Music)
# + "V" for video (eg. media_dir=V,/home/jmaggard/Videos)
# + "P" for images (eg. media_dir=P,/home/jmaggard/Pictures)
media_dir=A,/mnt/sda1/dlna/Music

2.4 Test it, running the following, using PuTTY:


Code:
minidlna -f /opt/etc/config/minidlna.conf -R


You should see your DLNA client (e.g. Samsung TV) connected to your router in seconds.

2.5 Paste the following on DD-WRT Web interface, Administration - Commands. Click "Save Startup".


Code:

   minidlna -f /opt/etc/config/minidlna.conf -R
  else
   exit
  fi
 else
  exit
 fi


2.6 Reboot the router.

You should see your DLNA client (e.g. Samsung TV) connected to your router in 60 seconds.


If there are any errors "error: line 4: default_postinst not found" accompanied by the message 'package name returned status 127' - You will then need to uninstall any of the packages by typing "opkg remove --force-remove package name" You will probably see an error about it not being able to execute a script but it should remove. You can confirm by typing opkg list-installed and it shouldn't list the package anymore. After you remove all the packages that are causing problems, you should be able to run 'opkg update' to replace the bad packages from the new /etc/opkg.conf source

I didn't do the transmission tutorial because I didn't have a use for it. I think if you follow the original steps it will probably work after fixing some of the things that have been broken since the tutorial was written.
