trinux-talk — General discussion including questions and problem resolution

[Trinux-talk] go away

[Dejan S. <de...@el...>]

I am a new user of a Trinux (and Linux as well) and i have a some 
questions about some programs i am not able to make it working.

What i need trinux for? i need a kind of ssh to serial port (ttyS0) 
gateway. So i have related packages installed (minicom, 
opensshand opensshd).

Network is up and running with static address (had a problem with 
dhcp). When i type minicom (with any switch) it gives me a 
message: "You don't exist, go away"

I just don't know what to do about. Any Idea?

Second, i have a problem with openssh and opensshd. ssh gives me 
the same message as minicom. The same is for key generation 
utility.

As for sshd, it is not working, saying that it could not find keys. I did
exactly as described in instructions for openssh(d) but it seems that
there are additional steps which are not mentioned there...

Any help would be appreciated...

[Trinux-talk] NE2000 driver not loading

[Randy W. <ra...@si...>]

This is the output of my trinux boot sequence:

Executing [prenet]
Looking for eth0
Bringing down eth0
Found static network configuration.
Configuring eth0
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
=2E..

I have set ether=3D3,0x240,eth0 to the append line in syslinux.cfg.
IRQ3 and IO base address 240 is how my NE2000 capatible card is configure=
d.

I am using the trinux-0.80rc2-net.img.
My ethernet card is IBM LAN 10baseT card with an AT/Lantic chip.
I have also tried my trinux boot floppy with a Kingston KNE20T NIC and
I get the same results. =20

What am I missing?  I know both of these cards work with the Linux kernel=
=20
ne2000 driver as I use them in other PC's running Linux.

Thanks,

Randy

Re: [Trinux-talk] getpkg Trinux Newbie

[Timothy B. <tb...@ar...>]

If I remember correctly, getpkg is a pretty straightforward shell script.

Have a look at the script and you can learn what you are doing wrong.

Re: [Trinux-talk] getpkg Trinux Newbie

[Randy W. <ra...@si...>]

Thanks for the tip on the better servers, but I get
the same results as before for both:

# getpkg bash http://trinux.sf.net/pkg/  (Waits for about 20 secs)
#                                        (# sign returns)
# ls                                     (shows no bash.tgz)
# pkgadd bash
bash.tgz not found!

What should I expect from getpkg?  If it finds the package
I requested will it output anything to the screen while it is
being downloaded?

I can ping http://trinux.sf.net/pkg/.
nslookup resolves trinux.sf.net to 216.136.171.201
snarf http://trinux.sf.net/pkg also seems to work fine.
I assume that getpkg must do some sort of anonymous login.
Could this be failing for some reason?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Randy

Change  a:\tux\config\server on the boot floopy to
http://trinux.sf.net/pkg/

or 

http://the.wiretapped.net/security/operating-systems/trinux/pkg/

It is much faster and complete.

[Trinux-talk] getpkg Trinux Newbie

I just download the trinux-0.80rc2-net.img.  The network comes up
successfully.  I can ping my gateway and I can ping=20
www.io.com/~mdfranz/trinux/pkg, but getpkg just seems
to wait for awhile and then time out.  No package shows up anywhere.
Here is the command=20
I tried: getpkg angst http://www.io.com/~mdfranz/trinux/pkg/

Not sure what to expect from getpkg?

Would appreciate any ideas about what could be going wrong!

Re: [Trinux-talk] 0.80rc2 IDE

[Timothy B. <tb...@ar...>]

Try:

ping 192.168.232.60

You should be able to ping your own interface, if not, then check your 
config.

ping 192.168.232.54

If this fails, try a different cable and card, unless you have tested them 
with another OS, and they test OK.

You did not mention which NIC card you have, or which driver got setup.  
It could be wrong, faulty, or not compatible.

Check your routes too...  you might need to manually add a route

Check ifconfig to see if your interface is recording any ingress or egress 
packets.

Check the link lights on the nic cards and the hub.

[Trinux-talk] 0.80rc2 IDE

[Sean <se...@at...>]

Using a vanilla 0.80rc2-ide boot floppy configured
for static IP:

eth0    set to 192.168.232.60 255.255.255.0
gateway set to 192.168.232.54
dns     set to point to internet dns server

The gateway machine is a Linux box set up
as a router running MASQ in ipchains, so
all internet traffic from the LAN (including
the Trinux machine) should get routed through
the Linux box

Additional packages on second floppy contain 
pcmcia support and this is started manually
by running /etc/tux/pcmcia.  This works fine,
since ifconfig shows eth0 up and running.

The only snag is - the Trinux box cannot
ping any other machines on the LAN, and 
other machines on the LAN can't ping
the Trinux box.  

??? So, although eth0 is up and running, ???
??? no traffic gets routed. Why is this  ???

Thanks for any help to eliminate the problem
- and my confusion.

RE: [Trinux-talk] Re: When the device is receiving the heartbeat

[Richard T. <ri...@th...>]

Remember y'all, the link light only
indicates that a completed circuit
exists. It does not indicate anything
about the quality of the circuit. If a
cabling contractor is testing installed
lines with a simple continuity checker,
and not a CAT5 or better tester, then
the lines are not truly certified CAT5.
Oh yeah, and fire them quick!

Now that you mention it...  I too have
had situations where the cards had
link lites, but no talk...  But I never
had a card that talked with a link
lite that was dark...

I once found that due to cable
length/quality issues, one nic card was
trying to do 100 mbps and the other
10mbps.  Link lites were on, but
nobody home...

[Trinux-talk] ISO with PCMCIA support / initrd help

[Earle L. <ev...@ea...>]

Thank you for your responses on the initrd help.

I was able to find some helpful information on initrd on Trinux-Talk from
Timothy Burt at the following link:

http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg_raw.php3?msg_id=6868379

I had seen it before, however, Tim helped narrow my search down.

I am still in search of of what files need to be modified and/or packages
that need to be replaced to make the ISO bootable with PCMCIA support.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,

[Trinux-talk] ISO building initrd, and new faq update on the way

[windham l. <mst...@ho...>]

If we make the subject line more descriptive then it will be easier to 
search considering we have to search manually. If you look in the trinux
faq you will find that it shows you how to mount a loop filesystem as well
as modify the initrd.

[Trinux-talk] A few questions...

[Earle L. <ev...@ea...>]

Could someone please tell me what files I need to modify to make the

an e-mail in the Trinux-Talk archives, however, I was unable to find it.

Another question I had was, does anyone know where I can find more
information on initrd, other than the 'man' page. I am also looking for
information on loop, so that I can explore/modify the initrd.

Thanks,

Does anyone know how the Trinux kernel bzImages get so

I use the standard source from kernel.org and no

it's still too big.

Are there plans to have more ext3 support?

I'm looking to build a trinux version that will let me clone whatever 
linux fs I want, starting with support for ext2, ext3, and reiser.

Getting to ext3 from ext2 is simple enough as a post cloning ritual if 
necessary.

I can just boot from a different floppy distro and run:

tune2fs -j /dev/hdX

...but it's be nice if it were all in one place.

You will need to upgrade your kernel to 2.4.18

see http://trinux.sf.net/kernel/2.4.18/ide/bzImage

and 

insmod the kernel mod from

http://trinux.sf.net/modules/2.4.18/fs/ext3/ext3.o  (this is close)

I think you should be able to mount it (and write of course--I think I did
this once) but I don't have any utils for creating filesytems.

I'm running Trinux 0.80rc2 what packages are there that support an ext3 
file system?

Re: [Trinux-talk] Busybox

[Duane <du...@ca...>]

I have compiled busybox 0.60.3 on slackware 7.1 and replaced the busybox on 
one of my boot floppies with the 0.60.3 version.

My ls is now in color, when I type poweroff I get the same responses as if 
I had typed halt instead of the applet not found error (still does not 
power off the laptop I am testing on), and there appears to be no change in 
the du and df commands.

This is the first time I have done something like this, what should I be 
testing to see if the new busybox has a problem with trinux?

Thanks,
Duane.
