Fail to get an IP from DHCP server after installing fvdw-sl

[Draftmancorp]

Can you load standalone kernel and connect with telnet mount sda7 on /sda7 and post output of cat /sda7/boot.log

As next trial I am going to make a seperate rcS file used at boot that will only activate an ssh server so we can talk to the nas when booting from harddisk to investigate further what going on there

Yes, i'm here for this :thumbup :

ok new rcS file prepared I will upload it in a minute

[fvdw]

attached a zip file rcS-new.zip, unzip to get the the file rcS-new
Put this file in the tftp folder of the fvdw-sl console

Load standalone kernel and connect with telnet
In telnet give the commands
In thiese command replace ip-pc by actual ip adress of your pc running fvdw-sl console

Code: Select all

mkdir /sda7
mount /dev/sda7 /sda7
mv /sda7/etc/init.d/rcS /sda7/etc/init.d/rcS-original
tftp -r rcS-new -l /sda7/etc/init.d/rcS -g ip-pc
chmod 777 /sda7/etc/init.d/rcS


check if rcS is changed

Code: Select all

ls -l /sda7/etc/init.d

You should see in the listing a file with name rcS-original and rcS
Please post the output here so I can check it

If all oke

Code: Select all

umount /sda7
poweroff -f

and repeat procedere for boot via uboot console

If all goes wel it will start a ssh server on port 12 and also the discover daemon to be detected by fvdw-sl assistant
If the ssh server starts we could connect with ssh (putty) on port 12 (instead of 22)

At: tftp -r rcs_new -l /sda7/etc/init.d/rcS -g 192.168.0.177
I got "tftp: server error: (1) File not found"

[fvdw]

Code: Select all

tftp -r rcS-new -l /sda7/etc/init.d/rcS -g 192.168.0.177
