Re: [Ipodlinux-devel] Ethernet over firewire

[Bernard L. <le...@bo...>]

The only mod to the standard filesystem (as on sourceforge) is a
different rc script.  Here is mine;

# cat /mnt/ipod/etc/rc
hostname ipod
mount -t proc proc /proc
cat /etc/motd
ln -s /dev/pty/m0 /dev/ptyp0
ln -s /dev/pty/m1 /dev/ptyp1
ln -s /dev/vc/0 /dev/tty0
ln -s /dev/vc/1 /dev/tty1
mknod /dev/ttyp0 c 3 0
mknod /dev/ttyp1 c 3 1
modprobe tsb43aa82
modprobe eth1394
ifconfig eth0 192.10.1.2
------------cut--------------

If that doesn't work, try using the precompiled kernels.

cheers,
bern.
