Hi, I've been playing with the Moblin 2.0 Beta for a couple of days. I built the sample application (with some modifications) and wanted to run it under Moblin, rather than my Ubuntu development machine.I copied the target binary onto a USB pen drive to test on my netbook (Dell Inspiron Mini 10) running Moblin. This seemed a little unwieldy, and I noticed that there were instructions for using scp to copy to the target. The scp command (which I'm not familiar with) seemed to depend on an IP address for the target hardware. However, when I tried to execute "ifconfig -a" in order to get my IP address, it failed. It seems that ifconfig is not a part of the Moblin image. Is this deliberate? If so, why? It seems like a serious omission. Or maybe, I'm just doing something wrong, I'm no Linux expert........
the ifconfig command resides in the /sbin directory, since this commonly is an administrative command, not for non-administrative users. Also, by default we do not ship/enable the ssh server, needed for scp, so you may need to yum install that. _______________________________________________ Moblin dev Mailing List dev@moblin.org To manage or unsubscribe from this mailing list visit: http://lists.moblin.org/listinfo/dev or your user account on http://moblin.org once logged in.
