Many thanks for that, I now have a message that owfs is enabled, but I cannot get any further.
Following the notes from Tomasz Korwel http://tomasz.korwel.net/2006/07/02/owfs-instalation-on-ubuntu-606/ it all seems OK until the line comp# /opt/owfs/bin/owfs /dev/ttyS0 /var/1-Wire/mnt I assume that this is calling the owfs executable and he has it in /opt/owfs/bin/ My /opt/ is empty even though the messages at the end of configure say Deployment location: /opt/owfs What am I doing wrong?
