Re: Spectre660's Linux downloads for the X5000

Got the bzip2 compressed .img on to Google Drive and linked it in the first post in this thread but ran in to some more problems.
The Only AmigaOS 4.1 browser that will start the download from Google drive is Timberwolf .
Will let it continue to see if the download finishes but it is slow. Will take hours to download .
Also my test to write decompressed archive did not write properly.
The archive was transferred from Windows to the X5000 via samba then decompressed under AMigaOS 4.1FE so will see if it works if I can finish the download with Timberwolf .

Re: Spectre660's Linux downloads for the X5000
This seems a terrible amount of time and work for you. Would it be possible to set up the flash drive on my linux-like Raspberry Pi 3 and then use it on the X5000?Spectre660 wrote:@kilaueabart

You would need enough storage space on the Raspberry Pi 3 to decompress the .img .
I am having a look a Microsoft One drive to host the .img .
This is going to be an interesting exercise . The problem seems to be AmigaOS 4.1 and the files size.
This is just 1 or 3 different installation methods. the other two use smaller files and should not be such a problem but need more attention when installing ,

I cant get the rawdisk to write the image properly with the large file so I am concluding the it cant be done from Amigaos 4.1 for now .
So the option that works from AmigaOS 4.1 is the ramdisk net installer.
I have update the information in the first post in this thread .

Re: Spectre660's Linux downloads for the X5000
I dd'ed that installer to a flash drive that I believed I had set up with the FAT32 thing, but now I'm not sure. I've been trying to redo that on a spoiled drive, but rawdisk keeps giving me alerts that the printer can't be found(!) and finally,Spectre660 wrote:@kilaueabart

I have update the information in the first post in this thread .
Code: Select all
4.Workbench:> Sys:Utilities/Rawdisk from Apps:Empty_Fat32.img to usb0:
One of "To" or "From" must be a disk
Code: Select all
usb reset
setenv bootargs root=/dev/ramdisk mem=3500M
...
fatload usb 0:1 1000000 uImage-cyrus
fatload usb 0:1 1c00000 cyrus_5020.dtb
fatload usb 0:1 2000000 uRamdisk
bootm 1000000 2000000 1c00000
I was since then able to format the drive to Fat32 with GParted and dd'ed the Net installer to /dev/sda (something I found on the internet said I should not dd to /dev/sda1, but I wonder if that applies in this case?), but attempts to boot from Uboot now get me "Bad device - usb."

Use dd or AmigaOS 4.1 rawdisk to copy the following .img to usb.
All the files needed for net installation are on this .img
http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/wfcr ... r.img?dl=0
Then try to start it from U-Boot

I guess I've found new ways to do it wrong.Spectre660 wrote:@ kilaueabart
Use dd or AmigaOS 4.1 rawdisk to copy the following .img to usb.
First I used GParted to repartition and format the flash drive to FAT32. Then I dd'ed the .img file to it, to /dev/sda1 instead of /dev/sda this time.
Tried it in Uboot, and each fatload command got "** Bad device usb0 **."
Went to OS4 and apparently succeeded in loading the empty FAT32 .img with rawdisk.
Code: Select all
rawdisk from Apps:Empty_Fat32.img to USB0:
Default start block = 2048
File size = 255852544, writing 499712 blocks
Progress: 100%
This time, trying the fatload commands in Uboot resulted in "** unrecognized filesystem type **."
OS4 recognizes the usb drive as "US0:Uninitialized." The Rasberry Pi desktop doesn't see the drive at all GParted sees it but doesn't know what is on it.
By the way, when I run Rawdisk I have to cancel printer searches about a dozen times before it starts working.

Re: Spectre660's Linux downloads for the X5000
Both the empty fat32 .img and the Installer .img are the same size. a 256MB drive image
Sounds like the writing of the drive did not work properly .
You could try doing it with the Pi as it is a small .img file.
If you are running Ubuntu Mate on the Pi just right click on the downloaded .img icon and select "Open with Disk Image Writer"
Then select the USB drive to write to .
