ooooh, ick. is there something wrong with sarge? The packages may be
"old" by a desktop user's standards, but for embedded work I think
they're just getting to the "properly aged" point. Which would be the
point at which I don't have to update them every other day.
Shoot, most embedded distros still only offer 2.4 kernels. But that's
a big reason why i went with voyage -- it was up to date as much as it
needed to be to do it's job, but not so old as to be stale and
lacking.
There is nothing wrong with sarge. This mailing list runs on sarge as
well. Many of packages in sarge have been outdated for a while. With
etch, you can enjoy the newer package from debian, e.g. aircrack-ng,
kismet for madwifi-ng, etc. In addition, "always new" is my aim to
create voyage. Otherwise, I would stick to pebble instead of creating
voyage..
so I have a bunch of wrap boxes (pc-engines wrap1c) acting as waps
running voyage. they're mounted up high, and not easy to get to.
They are also running voyage 0.3 downloaded on 02-jun-2006. What are
your recommendations for this situation?
I didn't release any 0.3 release, do you mean the voyage-current? This
version is close to 0.2 (i.e sarge) but with ubuntu kernel. You could
still consider it as 0.2. And you should point the sources.list back to
0.2 ( instead of unstable) to avoid confusion. Indeed, you could still
enjoy the security update from Debian sarge. It is just that 0.2
repository (which also means, voyage kernel and madwifi-ng driver) is
not updated.
