General Category / General Discussion / Re: New QT based installer: Enhanced Sheevaplug Installer Application (ESIA)
|

Any chance I can get a bump for this? Is there a way to add a post-processing step where I can integrate additional files such as a custom rc.local and other startup scripts without having to have "inserted" them into the root tarball?
How about something as simple as: 1) Look for any directories in the "base" folder (Ubuntu904, Debian_lenny, etc) and copy the files and folders to the same files and folders on the plug. 2) If the file "/etc/rc.local" is found, mark it executable (and remove windows line-endings (#13) so that it will run properly with a shebang line). Thanks, ~Joe |

Question and Comment.
Question:
Is there a way to add a post-processing step where I can integrate additional files such as a custom rc.local and other startup scripts without having to have "inserted" them into the root tarball?
Comment:
The Installation progress should be a bit clearer that when you are on the "Preparing for partitioning" step when you have chosen to backup the existing OS -- it will take quite a while. I aborted my initial tests of the installer at this step because I thought it had "hung". Perhaps an additional step, "Backing up existng OS"?
Great piece of software!
Thanks!

My plug was working via the alpha-6 release. I wanted to try debian and the instructions told me that I needed to ugrade my uboot first.
I followed those instructions and now my plug won't boot. (I'm sure I messed it up.)
Could someone point me to a step-by-step tutorial on how to get my plug back to a working state (booting from flash):
1) Original Marvell configuration
or
2) Installer alpha-6
or
3) Installer 1.0
To complicate matters, my linux machine died but I think I could use Portable Ubuntu Remix on a Windows XP box if necessary.
(Also if there is a document that explains the u-boot process that would be a bonus. All I know is to follow via rote the instructions relating to setting env variables, etc.)
Thanks,
~Joe

General Category / General Discussion / Coherence Media Server question

I have installed the Coherence Media Server on my Plug. It is working (I can play media files on my Popcorn Hour player) but I am getting errors in the log file and am wondering if I still have a problem and don't know it.

I have a hard drive with HD ATSC (.ts) files that I want to serve to a Popcorn Hour A-100 (with the 30-second advance and reverse intact).
I currently use an XP machine but would like to be able to serve the files without leaving the loud, heat-producing desktop running all the time.
I don't need to do any transcoding or any CPU-intensive progressing. By the time the files are on the hard drive they are ready to view.
Any thoughts on how to serve the files over an ethernet network from a USB2 drive on the SheevaPlug?
Thanks,
~Joe
