For best results, make sure you plug in any USB devices before starting the chroot. Networking changes may also need a sync.

You might need to "sudo closechroot," then plug in the device, preferably, get the device working as eth0 in maemo, "touch /home/user/.synchroot", then start up the chroot ("sudo debian").

Thanks for your help, qole....but what type of sync are you referring to?
:confused:

OK, tried to get several USB ethernet adapters I have working in maemo, but no go....have set things up per Wiki info, but I just get error messages 'Device Not Found' when I do '/usr/sbin/usbEthUp.sh'in terminal...

So, I assume that my problem might be just related to specific devices I am trying to use....have tried the following:

A) Belkin F5D5050 (USB 1.0)

B) CablesUnlimited USB-2810 (USB2.0)

C) Linksys USB200M ver.2.1 (USB2.0)

So, perhaps, I need to try a fourth device.....
:rolleyes:

yeah, you need the right kernel module in maemo before you can start using the device.

Going to install this when i get home, I'm working 72 hours a week right now so I havn't been around the itT in awhile good to see this is going well. BTW you used 500GB of bandwidth this month. :)

Only 500 GB? Oh well, maybe I'll do better next month! ;) :D

Yeah I would love to see you use about 5TB in a month that would be awesome :)

Did localepurge and freed up some space...

However, now when I tried to do 'apt-get upgrade, I ended with message that upgrade needed 230MB of space and that I didn't have enough room.

Anyone else run into this problem?

Thanks!

Code:
mkdir /media/mmc1/debian-apt-archives
mount -o bind /media/mmc1/debian-apt-archives /debian/var/cache/apt/archives
Note the /media/mmc1/debian-apt-archives path can be anything you want, as long as there is enough space there (50-100 MB).

Then, from inside the Debian chroot, you can issue an "apt-get upgrade"

qole,

Followed your instructions, but now when I do 'apt-get upgrade from Debian chroot terminal window, I get the following:

Code:
#apt-get upgrade
E: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
Also, when I do:

Code:
#apt-get update
E: Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing.
Any suggestions????


Thanks!
