Re: List of installed packages
Hi
The dpkg selection is stored in file /var/lib/dpkg/status. The simplest is to extract it from the install image and read it. A small awk script should be able to filter the package list . I joined the status file to this post.

Re: Having trouble connecting to on-board serial port
Hello,
The PL2303 is a converter between USB and standard RS232 serial port. It is not compatible with the TTL 3.3V console port on the B3. You need to use another adapter, such as the FTDI TTL-232RG-VREG3V3-WE, available in sereral online shops.

Re: Decent iptables script
I think a simpler way is to use iptables-restore in /etc/network/interfaces with the up keyword under eth0 or eth1. Besides that's the method debian guys recommend.

Re: Accessing u-boot variables from linux
Well I'm making progress ; after carefully looking into flash, and reading the u-boot docs, I managed to get fw_printenv working with this configuration : # MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size /dev/mtd0 0x050000 0x002000 0x002000 /dev/mtd0 0x060000 0x002000 0x002000 But fw_sete...

Warning: Bad CRC, using default environment
bootcmd=bootp; setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=${serverip}:${rootpath} ipm
bootdelay=5

Re: Accessing u-boot variables from linux
I did notice the 0x50000 area in the flash content and tried to write the fw_env.config this way : # MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size Number of sectors /dev/mtd0 0x050000 0x010000 0x010000 However it doesn't work. I think that either the configuration is incorrect or the set...

Re: Accessing u-boot variables from linux
Does anyone know how to get this to work on the bubba two ? I just managed to make my bubba boot on a raid-1 device, and I would like to write an howto about it ; However it requires a change in the u-boot environment, and it would be nice to avoid the serial cable prerequisite :wink: . So far I ins...

Re: B2 won't accept DHCP Offer in rescue mode
So I started trying to diagnose this issue with my brand new serial console access :P. Here is my test environment : - A Bubba 2 with the 2.4RC1 image on a FAT32 usb disk, DO_INSTALL=0 in bubba.cfg - A laptop with debian squeeze with static IP adress 192.168.1.1/24 on eth0, without firewall - busybo...

Re: ip rule kernel support
I recompiled the kernel to enable this feature too, but it would be nice to have it in the official kernel also. The option is IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER.

Re: B2 rev RD serial access
After a contact with FTDI, they suggested a very simple test I didn't think about : contact the TX and the RX wires together on the cable, open a console and see if sent characters echo back. Which didn't work so I sent back the cable for an exchange. I shall keep you posted when I'll receive the ne...
