Re: Login screen on firmware upgradation

2011-03-20 Thread Dima
Hi.
  Just a minor HTH note from me - a new (and seems that happy) user of
GTA02:

Power up -- even if the battery is on 0%, I keep the precise order:
first press and hold AUX, then without releasing AUX connect USB cable,
and power on. It appeared somewhere on Wiki.

Dima.

 Hi Rijul,
 please check that your downloaded image is not corrupted.
 
 
 You can download and compare it with our copy which we
 have used successfully an uncounted number of times:
 
 
 http://download.goldelico.com/gta02/Moko11/
 
 
 You must also flash the image on the flat memory card
 (e.g. /dev/sdb) and not into a partition (and not /dev/sdb1
 or /dev/sdb2).
 
 
 To boot from NOR flash, press the AUX button and
 then power on. The boot menu should appear within
 a second. Choose boot from SD (ext).

Freerunner as a gateway for computer

2011-02-20 Thread Dima Sorkin
Hi.

If it seems that the below questions are general Linux WiFi or
networking questions without Freerunner specific issues/hacks, please
feel free to redirect me to relevant manuals.

  (1) It is sometimes more convenient for me to connect to open WiFi
access point with Freerunner and make it serve as a gateway (for a PC
that is connected to Freerunner via USB). How do I do it?
  (2) Is it possible to cause Freerunner to serve as a WiFI AP (linked
to Internet via USB thru PC)? How?
  (3) Cause Freerunner-USB-PC chain to act as a bridge between wireless
AP and ethernet AP?

Details:
Freerunner has recent 'testing' SHR on it.
PC runs Ubuntu 10 server, however I would prefer a more generic
explanation. PC does not have wireless adapter for itself.


Thank you, regards,
  Dima.
