Man I feel retarded for not figuring this out, but it looks like I need some help

First off, I'm running build 12533 (mega) on a WRT54G-TM with 2gb SD mod. The sdcard mounts fine to /mmc and I'm able to create /mmc/opt and mount -o bind /opt

I've tried both manually installing optware, and using the install script located on the wiki
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Optware

It seems that no matter what I try, when trying "ipkg update" it simply does nothing

and when trying to ipkg install / ipkg-opt install, it tells me to run ipkg update.

I am sorry I cannot do anything for your answer. I am in the same boat as you. I hope you don't mind if I tag along on this one.

Have you tried

wget http://www.wlan-sat.com/boleo/optware/optware-install-ddwrt.sh -O - | tr -d '\r' > /opt/tmp/optware-install.sh

I used;

wget http://www.3iii.dk/linux/optware/optware-install-ddwrt.sh -O - | tr -d '\r' > /tmp/optware-install.sh

which I believe is the same script, I also tried replacing all of the /jffs/ references to /mmc/ with no luck

Once you bind /mmc/opt to /opt you should only have to use /opt, right? Cause the bind command tells the kernal the path so it knows were to go when just /opt is mentioned. Hell, I could be way off base. I am a linux n00b. Laughing

Yep binding /mmc/opt to /opt would last until reboot I believe, I added it to my startup script so I wouldnt have to type it all the time

In mount -o bind /jffs/opt /opt What is the -o for?


I got it to work but with the -o in there it doesn't recognized opt on the mmc.

I could be wrong, but I think the -o bind is because you're mounting it in two places. At /jffs/opt and at /opt

Is your opt folder on jffs? I have mine located on /mmc which seems to be the root of my problem

got it, you have to be in the /opt directory before you execute sh /tmp/optware-install.sh

I am also getting the feeling that after you mount jffs everything else should be mounted in it. I got...


/mmc/jffs
/mmc/opt
/mmc/ipkg

And I think it should be...

/mmc/jffs
/mmc/jffs/opt

It creates the ipkg directory itself.

So ..

mount --bind /mmc/jffs /jffs
mount -o bind /mmc/opt /opt
mount --bind /mmc/ipkg /ipkg

or

mount --bind /mmc/jffs /jffs
mount --bind /mmc/jffs/opt /opt

Should jffs be mounted twice?

Well I finally got mine working, Ill try to explain what I did.

First off I started with a freshly formatted ext3 partition /dev/mmc/disc0/part1

I enabled MMC support and JFFS2 support in the web gui...restarted the router

Then

mkdir /mmc/jffs
mount --bind /mmc/jffs /jffs
nvram set sys_enable_jffs2=1
mkdir /jffs/tmp
mkdir /jffs/tmp/ipkg
mkdir /jffs/opt
mount -o bind /jffs/opt /opt

wget http://www.3iii.dk/linux/optware/optware-install-ddwrt.sh -O - | tr -d '\r' > /tmp/optware-install.sh

sh /tmp/optware-install.sh

ipkg update
/opt/bin/ipkg-opt update
/opt/bin/ipkg-opt install busybox

(Setup 64mb swap partition)
/opt/bin/busybox swapon /dev/mmc/disc0/part2

And I also added this to my startup.script
mount --bind /mmc/jffs /jffs
mount -o bind /jffs/opt /opt
/opt/bin/busybox swapon /dev/mmc/disc0/part2


Hope this helps!

Yes, the first mount dev/mtdblock/4 is your routers flash memory, the second mount is the symlink to your /mmc/

I added this to my shutdown.script

/opt/bin/busybox swapoff /dev/mmc/disc0/part2
umount /mmc/jffs /jffs
umount /jffs/opt /opt

If anyone has a better way of doing this, feel free to correct me

whats the purpose of the shutdown script? Why would you want to unmount those?

I noticed that when I rebooted the router without unmounting those directories my busybox utilities were corrupt. I'm not sure the cause yet but I haven't had the same problem since unmounting before rebooting.
