$ make setup-optware

Edit Feb 22 08, Tyler Colbert Doesn't seem to need the above change as it uses subversion now instead of cvs and I can't even find the line. Seemed to work, but havent finished trying it yet. You might need to install subversion before running "make setup-optware". I already had it installed so I'm unsure.

Edit May 18th, Jakob Nielsen (jakob (at) jn-net.dk):

3. Now you can run:

1. sudo dpkg -i monotone_0.25-0.1_i386.deb

Edit May 18th, Jakob Nielsen: Sourceforge cvs has changed cvs architecture, therefore you have to edit the Makefile before executing: $ make setup-optware

1. Edit the Makefile, you can use Gedit:

 $ gedit Makefile

2. Under "setup-optware" (line 328) the following line:

 ( cvs -q -d :pserver:anonymous@nslu.cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/nslu co -d optware unslung )

should be changed to this:

 cvs -q -d :pserver:anonymous@nslu.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nslu co -d optware unslung

3. now you can run:

 $ make setup-optware

1. Download the 0.25 source : wget http://venge.net/monotone/downloads/monotone-0.25.tar.gz
2. tar -zxvf monotone-0.25.tar.gz
3. cd monotone-0.25
4. dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b
5. The above WILL create an error because of missing packages. Install the missing packages with sudo apt-get install <missing package names>
6. cd ..
7. sudo dpkg -i monotone_0.25-0.1_i386.deb

Edit jan 28, David Holm: Apparently the makefile has changed and now requires monotone-0.25 which cannot be installed with apt-get so: 1) Download the 0.25 source :

   wget http://venge.net/monotone/downloads/monotone-0.25.tar.gz

2) tar -zxvf monotone-0.25.tar.gz 3) cd monotone-0.25 4) dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b 5) The above WILL create an error because of missing packages. Install the missing packages with

   sudo apt-get install <missing package names>

6) cd .. 7) sudo dpkg -i monotone_0.25-0.1_i386.deb

You should then create a directory called tmp inside the optware directory:

 optware$ mkdir tmp

and delete the "#" at the start of the line

 # deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe

You might need to add the universe repository if it can't find monotone. Make sure that the line containing universe is uncommented. Do

 $ ipkg install name_of_the_package.ipk

 $ ipkg install name_of_the_packag.ipk

You might need to add the universe repository if it can't find monotone. Make sure that the line containg universe is uncommented. Do

 $ sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

and delete the "#" at the start of the line "# deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe".

Now we are ready to make a directory to keep the stuff your going to download

Now the last step you need in order to build packages, is to build the package system.

 optware$ make ipkg-utils

Make a directory to keep the stuff your going to download

 $ mkdir unslung
 $ cd unslung

 $ ipkg install name_of_the_packag.ipkg

Michael Mc Donnell

 optware$ make name_of_the_package-ipk

If all goes well you will end up with a file name_of_the_package.ipk file in the directory optware/builds Now copy the file your DS-101g+ and install it by issuing the command(on your DS-101g+)

This is a guide on how to set up your Ubuntu Breezy installation, so that you can make your own ipkg files for optware.

First you need to install the following packages:

• build-essential
• automake1.9
• bison
• monotone
• cvs
• flex
• libtool

This is easily done with the command

 $ sudo apt-get install build-essential automake1.9 bison monotone cvs flex libtool

Then get the master makefile from www.nslu2-linux.org

 $ wget http://www.nslu2-linux.org/Makefile

The next step will take some time. The makefile fetches all the things you need, in order to compile packages for your system.

 $ make setup-optware

Enter the directory optware when it's done. You need to edit Makefile so that it compiles packages for the ds101g instead of the nslu2. Replace the line

 OPTWARE_TARGET ?= nslu2

with

 OPTWARE_TARGET ?= ds101g

Now you are ready to build a package for your DS-101g+. The sub-directory /optware/make contains the makefiles of the packages you can build. Now issue the following command to build a package

 optware$ make name_of_the_package

If all goes well you will end up with a .ipkg file which you copy to your DS-101g+ and install issuing

 $ ipkg -i name_of_the_packag.ipkg

Hopefully this will work. Please edit and/or email me for corrections
