Completed by Koenradus ... 2) Setup Openssh ( optware openssh ) 3) Disable Telnet 4) Setup Fast lightweight Web Server with PHP support ( optware php-thttpd ) 5) Disable Built in webserver 6) Setup mail ( optware nail ) 7) Setup torrent ( optware rtorrent ) .... Completed by hijack204 ... 8) Setup download manager for rapidshare, megaupload ( optware plowdown ) I have update the first post with status on all these tasks .. - CrashX - 2009-10-11 Koenradus Wrote:Before 92.5/203.6 MB free (55% used), after 126.6/203.6 free (38% used), thats better! Are you installing on internal drive ? I thought it had only 16MB free ... - Koenradus - 2009-10-11 Yeah I noticed you said that in an earlier post. But I'm not installing on an internal drive. My O!Play has had 203.6 MB from the start (no external drive connected). Maybe we have a different version? I bought mine in the Netherlands. By the way if you find your internal memory is too small try this: Code: mkdir /opt/ Code: [oplay] Will the progress we made up till now enable us to run XBMC on the O!Play at some point? - hijack204 - 2009-10-11 CrashX Wrote:Are you installing on internal drive ? I thought it had only 16MB free ... I just linked my opt directory to the usbmounted device for more room - Koenradus - 2009-10-11 hijack204 Wrote:I just linked my opt directory to the usbmounted device for more room That works too - CrashX - 2009-10-11 hijack204 Wrote:/ # df -h Unfornately I haven't purchased it yet .. I have two many linux device at the moment .. I have wdtv ( original ) and hacked to support almost all of the stuff that I mentioned including network support via external usb adapter .. Getting XBMC on it ... This is a question for the linux experts which isn't me ... Were you able to find anything about the GUI ? Are they using configuration files ( XML ) ? In WDTV, the fact that they were using xml made it easier to hack the GUI to support apple trailer / youtube within the GUI ... - pmcd - 2009-10-11 Koenradus Wrote:If you follow the instructions in this post you should be OK. Pretty straightforward and the same files work on my O!Play: http://www.acryan.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=5637#p5637 That post does give detailed instruction for running Apache. It then says do the same for ftp and has a link to a binary package. I would like to try to only use the r/w portion of the O!Play (the one you mentioned) and have the files live on the esata drive on which I have 2 Linux partitions (and an ntfs one). To get ftp going is there a slimmed down description that you could provide? The only reason I am asking is that at this time there is no disaster recovery for the O!Play which is odd. At least one person seems to have bricked their unit by following the Peter apparoach (in avfroums.com in the uk) which remount the r/o part as r/w and modified some files. The easiest way would be to have optware installed without ever touching the r/o part of the memory. philip - CrashX - 2009-10-11 pmcd Wrote:That post does give detailed instruction for running Apache.

You can try installing optware package vsftpd .. - pmcd - 2009-10-12 CrashX Wrote:You can try installing optware package vsftpd .. But I'd have to be able to install optware and I haven't a clue on how to do that without writing to the read only part of the O!Play (: pmcd - Koenradus - 2009-10-12 Well you could try (and this is untested): Code: cd /usr/local/tmp Then create the tmp and ipkg dirs and follow instructions from previous post. The directory is /usr/local/tmp is mounted read/write by standard and (as an added bonus as i've read in other forums) does not get replaced on a firmware update... Good luck - CrashX - 2009-10-12 Koenradus Wrote:Yeah I noticed you said that in an earlier post. Can you please execute the following commands and post results ? Just curious what else is different .. 1) cat /proc/cpuinfo 2) cat /proc/meminfo 3) free 4) df -h - Koenradus - 2009-10-12 Will execute this tonight, when I'm home. I did a quick scan for xml files (du -ah / | grep xml) and that gave me 0 files. I will post a full list of all files on the O!Play on pastebin when I get home as well. - Koenradus - 2009-10-12 1) cat /proc/cpuinfo Code: system type : Realtek Venus Code: MemTotal: 121856 kB Code: total used free shared buffers Code: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on The file list for the O!Play can be viewed or downloaded @ Pastebin. I will look into what makes up the GUI. If you have any further requests let me know. |
