If so, how?
Currently this is something that the user needs to copy and paste into the serial port terminal, in order to have the Dreamplug boot from USB. So I think we can just update the freedom-maker README for now. I'm not sure if there is any way to automate this step. > >> 2. The USB stick device was named sda, not sdc.

[....] Mounting local filesystems...mount: special device /dev/sdc1 does not exist failed. Here is the /etc/fstab: /dev/sdc2 / auto relatime,rw 0 0 /dev/sdc1 /boot vfat defaults 0 0 cgroup /sys/fs/cgroup cgroup defaults 0 0 Running from the USB, those should be /dev/sda.

I had to run the /usr/lib/freedombox/setup script (after doing the apt-get dist-upgrade) to get the updated config files. Otherwise, it seems to be working ok. > -- > Happy hacking > Petter Reinholdtsen > > _______________________________________________ > Freedombox-discuss mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss
