problems transferring file larger than memory to mounted disk
I run 7f and experience problems transferring files larger than the physical memory of my 500g (12 MB). I attached a1 GB usb stick, 2 partitions, 1 formatted ext3 800MB, rest = swapspace for running a website.
cat /proc/meminfo shows 120 MB swap available
When I try to download python 2.5 (14 MB) the system hangs after 8.5 MB, scp from local machine to router hangs at 8.7 MB, scp on router getting from local system hangs at 8.5 mb
ftp hangs at 8.3 MB. I finally attached the usb stick on my local machine, transferred the downloaded package. Returned the stick to the router and was able to install with ipkg. However I think I will be in trouble with the next ipkg python update as the package probably will be bigger than 14 MB.
Anyone experiences the same problem??
problem compiling 7g firmware (LZMA problem)
Hi Oleg,
I tried to compile your 1.9.2.7-7g sources and I experienced the problem to compile LZMA library. The zlib.h file was missing.
I did an workaround and copied another one from ppp directories and made a patch to it by adding "compress2" method header into copied zlib.h.
The same library was missing in squashfs tree so I copied that newone from LZMA_lib folder into squashfs folder.
Offcourse, in both cases I had to replace following lines in files:
#include <zlib.h>
by
#incliude "zlib.h"
Finally it compiled.
Can you please fix it? Maybe I did something wrong and it should compile at first time.
