[HowTo] Install and configure Oleg's firmware

[super101]

Thanks so much, it spent me more than a week now, I couldn't finish everything without your great tutorial. Great tutorial!

[wengi]

Happy to hear it was helpfull for you.

Awesome! Good work guys.

One question, there is possibility to just provide us with a config;file which has already everything integrated?

[wengi]

Hi,

1) I am not the guy to build firmware. So i am not your man.
2) There will never be a firmware with "everything integrated" because you never know who need which comonents and some components will never work together.
3) (And the important one) If anybody over here will provide a "all-in-one firmware" you would install it and have no idea how to use it. So the questions would start again. And there would be howtos for using the things. In my eyes its better you learn by modifying your own firmware.

Learning by doing!

From PM:

hi,wengi
got a problem

putty connect to WL-HDD
network error:connection refused.

how to

thanks.

More input! From LAN or internet?
Firewall? What are you doing EXACTLY?

wengi

From LAN ,no Firewall

AT 4b. Startup-scripts

APPEND the following line:
Quote:
echo "nameserver IP.OF.DNS.SERVER" > /etc/resolv.conf

when save and reboot then putty connection refused

You only need this line if your Asus is NOT configured as Router to connect to the internet. If you are NOT using it as router try to use DHCP (If you have a DHCP Server in your LAN) for the first step.

You can ping your Asus and connect to the Webinterface?

wengi

[carry]

Yes, I can ping,telnet and connect to the Asus Webinterface.
also can set IP Address and Gateway...
my Asus is as a client in the network.

the point is when i add this line:
echo "nameserver IP.OF.DNS.SERVER" > /etc/resolv.conf
save and reboot

then use putty program SSH connect to Asus

PuTTY Fatal Error
network error:connection refused

[wengi]

Just to be sure: You replaced the "IP.OF.DNS.SERVER" with the IP adress of your DNS server?
This line for _my_ network looks like this:

echo "nameserver 192.168.201.1" > /etc/resolv.conf

Hi Wengi!

Thx, 4 your answer.

"df" said that te part2is full.
I have discovered that transmission put temp datas there in /share/www dir.
the part3 seems to be working after 1 day OFF.
I turned on the hdd while router was was working.
Here is the log:

Here is the info about the hdd now.

Now I have no access to part2, so I cannot check which dir is full.

Part3 didn't mounted to where fstab describe.

I started my Linux with your tutorial, so can you help me in the alt. superblock or bad sector check?

FW vers.: 1.9.2.7-10

Hello everyone

@MrPeeth:
transmission should not put temp data to /opt !!! Please check your transmission.conf. What is your work-directory?
Regarding the superblock you should read your own post

May 31 09:57:19 e2fsck: is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
May 31 09:57:19 e2fsck: e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

You should try

e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/discs/disc0/part2

BUT: If you can access your data atm: Do a backup! I think your hdd has a prob!

@shinji257:
Thanks for these tips. I will link it in the howto. I am NOT able to test it....

@bogd_A:
You can e.g. use the rm command in the shell:

rm -rf /tmp/harddisk/torrent/target/nameofyourtorrentdir

after an upgrade/update from 1.22 to 1.33 transmission went bad:

"Connection Interrupted
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again."
how I fix this thing?

[terabyte]

Hi wengi, when can we expect an update to your how-to using the new transmission package? thanks!

[wengi]

@zexe
You should have read at least the last few posts:
http://wl500g.info/showpost.php?p=109189&postcount=379

@terabyte
I will wait until oleo finished the changes.
Until then i will use the transmissiond package in the howtos.

@hdmovie
Sorry, but i will only add things to the howto if i am using them myself.
This is the only way to give a good support.
No media server on my wl-hdd means no media server in the howto.
You will have to use other howtos in this board.

Thanks so much, everthing works super on ASUS WL500W.
