I'm trying to compile and build the firmware from the GPL1.1.2.4 sourcecode. Although I followed all the instructions given in the ASUS-readme(s), I get build errors. The problem is that some shared libraries can not be found by the MIPSEL toolchain. I see that these libs are available and are stored in the /lib directoy of the MIPSEL toolchain (opt/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-linux/lib). What is missing? Do I have to add a path or perhaps edit a makefile?

Aha, forgot to modify LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Builds nicely now.

I managed to build a firmware from GPL 1.1.2.4
Now there are 2 .trx files in the mipsel dir: linux.trx and WLHDD_1.1.2.4_en.trx
Which one should I flash?
Can the flashtool be used in case my firmware doesn't work (which is quite likely)?

normally the linux.trx is the output from the one you have compiledI managed to build a firmware from GPL 1.1.2.4

As I am terribly impatient I flashed WLHDD_1.1.2.4_en.trx and it guess what, it boots up
Yeah, I disabled FAT support (it wouldn't compile with that) and I enabled the kernel NFSv3, but fttb I don't know if that actually runs since I don't see a /etc/exports neither do I see the rpc.mountd and rpc.nfsd daemons.
Anyhow that'll be a matter of time. Feel free to give me some tips

hi,

Did you export every Partition?

Well, I didn't export anything yet. That's what I like to figure out. At the moment I have no idea what else I have to do to get the built-in NFS daemon to work. I would hope it is just adding a exports file somewhere, but I'm afraid that's not enough. But I'm quite confident that it won't take that much longer.
update:
it seems I also need this: http://freshmeat.net/projects/nfs-utils/

hi,
sound's good...and i'ts nice to see how fast you step forward!
Do you still have periodic (every 3-8 sec) HD-Access with green LED flashing even if you do nothing? I ask that, because i think that this HD-Watchdog or whaterver that is, may be also responsible for file inconsistence if the HD was very busy.

the green HDD led is flashing once each ~15sec , but this frequency is not constant
the ethernet LAN led is now correctly flashing in green for 100mbs and yellow for 10mbs

Hi,
..same to me....and you still don't know the reason for that periodic HD-Access ?
:-) :-) so the manual is now correct and who knows what else...maybe that was only a blemish/Schönheitsfehler...I don't think so...:-)the ethernet LAN led is now correctly flashing in green for 100mbs and yellow for 10mbs

PS:Maybe you already know the original NFS-HowTo at http://nfs.sourceforge.net/ very good and I am sure in http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/server.html you'll find all the answers to your questions.

oops sorry , the manual is incorrect
it should be:
10mbs = green led
100mbs = yellow led
I thought it was fixed in 1.1.2.4 and later but it isn't (my nic was in 10mb mode wheras i thought it was in 100mbs ...)

;-) ok
